Abstract
⺠We explore large-scale effects of a meso-predator release in the Baltic Sea. ⺠High meso-predator densities resulted in 3 times higher recruitment of macroalgae. ⺠High numbers of the dominating grazers were found with low meso-predator densities. ⺠Cascading effects were likely to be transferred by changes in the grazer assemblage.
