Eelgrass Distribution in the Great Bay Estuary and Piscataqua River for 2013 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Eelgrass distribution and cover in Great Bay, Little Bay, and the Piscataqua River Estuary were mapped from aerial photography acquired on August 24, 2013. The total area of eelgrass beds with 10% or greater cover was 1683.4 acres.

Bivalve aquaculture and eelgrass: A global meta-analysis

open access: yesAquaculture, 2019
The marine, intertidal zone is the optimal environment for eelgrass (Zostera spp.) and bivalve aquaculture. Eelgrass is a valuable and protected nearshore habitat.

Eelgrass Mapping Great Bay Estuary for 1981 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The methods for this project followed the procedures specified in the approved QA Project Plan (Short and Trowbridge, 2003). Eelgrass meadow polygons for 1981 were mapped from USDA black-and-white aerial photographs, on file at the Strafford County and ...

UNH Eelgrass (Zostera marina) Monitoring Program for 2010-2014: Quality Assurance Project Plan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Eelgrass (Zostera marina) is essential to estuarine ecology because it filters nutrients and suspended particles from water, stabilizes sediments, provides food for wintering waterfowl, and provides habitat for juvenile fish and shellfish, as well as ...

Eelgrass Leaf Surface Microbiomes Are Locally Variable and Highly Correlated with Epibiotic Eukaryotes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Eelgrass (Zostera marina) is a marine foundation species essential for coastal ecosystem services around the northern hemisphere. Like all macroscopic organisms, it possesses a microbiome (here defined as an associated prokaryotic community) which may ...

Role of eelgrass on bed‐load transport and sediment resuspension under oscillatory flow

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, 2019
Coastal vegetation is widely attributed to stabilize sediment. While most studies focused on how canopy causes flow reduction and thereby affects sediment dynamics, the role of roots and rhizomes on stabilizing the surface sediment has been less well ...

Sexual reproduction vs. clonal propagation in the recovery of a seagrass meadow after an extreme weather event [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Marine flowering plants can reproduce sexually and clonally, and the relative contribution of these two modes can be dependent on the environmental conditions.
