Abstract

The extremely strong freezing on the Romanian shore during the period of January - March 1972 had a marked negative effect as it destroyed in a proportion of 80% the Cystoseira populations. The long-lasting ice also delayed the advent of the reproduction period of the surviving stock and consequently the gametes emission took place two months later. The efficiency of this reproduction period was nonetheless high, the density of young plantula over the artificial substratum sunk into the sea reaching up to 890 individuals/m2 within a period of 60 days.
