Abstract
To test the model that eco-engineering plant boxes on seawalls sustain water temperatures within thermal tolerance to maximize tropical marine biodiversity, we conducted acute thermal effects (AET) experiments using intertidal gastropods (Nerita albicilla and Littoraria articulata). The AET50 (50th percentile) for N. albicilla (39.6 °C) was higher than L. articulata (32.8 °C). Loggers (Hobo) in boxes on a seawall positioned for full exposure to...
