Manipulations of early arriving, fast-growing algal stands, which appeared soon after a severe storm denuded a Southern California marine reef habiatat, indicated that the dense cover protected newly settled kelp plants from excessive damage by grazing fishes. This is an example of refuge facilitation in primary succession after a major natural disturbance, a mechanism that may contribute substantially to the regeneration of a kelp forest.
对南加利福尼亚海洋珊瑚礁栖息地在一场强烈风暴扫荡后很快出现的早期生长快速藻类群进行的操作表明，茂密的覆盖物保护了新定居的海带植物免受食草鱼类的过度损害。这是在主要自然干扰后的原生演替中避难所促进的一个例子，这种机制可能对海带林的再生起到重要作用。
