This thesis is presented in three main sections. Each section is treated as a separate entity. The first deals with population structure, dynamics and production. The second reports on population respiration and the third section touches briefly on consumption. Conclusions are drawn in each section and a resume of the work concludes the thesis. This work is being followed up by other researchers tackling other populations in the system to build up a model of structure and functioning of the kelp bed community and ultimately the fate of the primary production of the kelp plants.
