Where three snail species attach while emersed in relation to heterogenous substrate temperatures underneath intertidal boulders
Mobile intertidal gastropods can employ behavioural thermoregulation to mitigate thermal stress, which may include retreating under boulders when emersed. However, little is known about how gastropod occupancy of under-boulder habitats is associated with any variations in substrate temperature that...
