Resumen de Towards a transitory or ephemeral key habitat concept.
Many marine species synchronize the different stages of their life cycles with opportunities to colonize environments by means of migration or passive transport associated with the movement of water. Physical and biological coupling is necessary to keep the life cycle from being interrupted and needs to be extremely precise, particularly when a life-cycle stage occurs in a habitat that is crucial to the ecological success of a species but which exists only ephemerally.
