Mapping eelgrass beds with orthophotos
2018Mapping the distribution of eelgrass is important for optimal management of eelgrass meadows, a key organism in coastal ecosystems. The many ecosystem functions and services that eelgrass beds provide, scale directly with their distribution area. We have evaluated the potential in using orthophotos, that Aarhus University has bought for other purposes,

Eelgrass under Arctic Winter Ice
Nature, 1969EELGRASS (Zostera marina L.), a marine angiosperm which grows on the Pacific coast of North America from the Gulf of California to the Chukchi Sea1, has been found living under the winter sea ice in Safety Lagoon, an embayment of the Bering Sea near Nome, Alaska.

Decomposition processes of eelgrass,Zostera marina L.
Hydrobiological Bulletin, 1982In Lake Grevelingen decomposition of eelgrass was studied in the field with the litter bag method from July 1977 till February 1978. After 6 months only 6% refractory matter remained in the bags. Under aerobic conditions the decomposition of eelgrass is completed within one year. The organic fraction decreased from 80 to 55%.

Improved allometric proxies for eelgrass conservation
Journal of Coastal Conservation, 2018Current anthropogenic influences threaten the permanence of eelgrass, a relevant macrophyte that brings about important ecological benefits including nursery for waterfowl and fish species, shoreline stabilization, nutrient recycling and carbon sequestration.

Eelgrass (Zostera marina) tolerance to anoxia
Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2010Abstract The tolerance of eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) to anoxia was assessed experimentally to evaluate the potential role of short-term anoxia on eelgrass performance. Eelgrass ramets (terminal leaf bundles with rhizomes and roots) were submerged in anoxic seawater for variable periods of time (0.5 to 48 h) at three temperatures (20, 25 and 30 °C ...

Aquatic Botany, 1987
Abstract The variation in reproductive potential of annual eelgrass was examined along a continuous gradient on an extensive mudflat bordering on and sloping down from the shore (Eastern River) and in a habitat mosaic in a salt marsh (Petpeswick Inlet) in Nova Scotia. Spathe and flower production as well as plant density were compared among habitats.

Eelgrass recovery after nutrient enrichment reversal
Aquatic Botany, 2010Abstract Mumford Cove, a 48 ha Connecticut embayment on Long Island Sound, has a history of excessive nutrient inputs and corresponding eutrophic conditions with concomitant eelgrass ( Zostera marina L.) loss. From 1945 to 1987, a municipal wastewater treatment facility discharged into the cove.
