Assessing pressure drivers on the benthic ecosystem in the coastal zone of Western Messinia, Greece
Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2022 The Messinia region, located in the South – West of the Peloponnese, Greece, is an ecologically valuable area comprising of several important coastal habitats (including coastal lagoons, seagrass meadows, and Mediterranean rhodolith beds) eliciting its inclusion in the Natura 2000 network.

The impacts of physical processes on oxygen variations in the North Sea-Baltic Sea transition zone [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2012 The bottom water of the North Sea–Baltic Sea transition zone suffers from seasonal hypoxia, usually during late summer and autumn. These hypoxic events are critical for the benthic ecosystems and the concentration of dissolved oxygen is an important ...

Bioregionalization in a data-poor situation: Mapping of Uruguayan marine benthic regions
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 IntroductionThe Uruguayan Exclusive Economic Zone (U-EEZ) is still lacking a technically sound and institutionally agreed system for classifying marine benthic ecosystems. This fact, added to the growing anthropic pressure marine ecosystems face in the U-

Effects of waste waters on benthic macrofauna of sandy beaches in Todos Santos Bay
Ciencias Marinas, 1992 The seasonal study of the benthic macrofauna in Todos Santos Bay shows the effects of waste waters on the benthic communities of the intertidal zone. The analysis of the data separates the fauna into two main associations: one made up of the populations

BenthIQ: a Transformer-Based Benthic Classification Model for Coral Restoration [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Coral reefs are vital for marine biodiversity, coastal protection, and supporting human livelihoods globally. However, they are increasingly threatened by mass bleaching events, pollution, and unsustainable practices with the advent of climate change. Monitoring the health of these ecosystems is crucial for effective restoration and management. Current

An ecological and methodological assessment of benthic gross primary production in northern lakes
Ecosphere, 2022 Benthic gross primary production (GPP) is often the most important part of aquatic food webs in northern lakes, which are gradually warming and receiving increased terrestrial colored dissolved organic carbon loadings due to global change.
