He removed the lower barnacles who had already reached their fundamental niche. This lead the upper barnacles (the less competitive) who had not reached their full fundamental niche to spread out and moved down.

This lead to the conclusion that "interspecific competition is important in structuring communities."From your friendly DISPers.
