Background Zostera marina L., or eelgrass, is the most widespread seagrass species throughout the temperate northern hemisphere. Unlike the dry seeds of terrestrial plants, eelgrass seeds must survive in water, and salinity is the key factor influencing ...

Abstract Estuary dependence to the survival of Chinook salmon was investigated at the Campbell River estuary, British Columbia, Canada. Replicate batches of marked smolts were transferred from a hatchery and released in 1983, 1984 and 1985 at four ecosystems, two that ensured estuarine experience (river, estuary) and two seawards of the estuary ...

How Edge Effects in Eelgrass Habitats Impact Organism Abundance and Diversity in the Puget Sound [PDF]
Habitat transitions occur all over the globe. They can be seen in both terrestrial and marine environments and produce influential edge effects. In the Puget Sound, eelgrass habitats are commonly seen with abrupt habitat changes at the edge of the ...

Abstract Early life‐history traits of seahorses are closely linked to juvenile survival, dispersal potential and the onset of substrate attachment; however, detailed stage‐resolved descriptions remain limited for many Hippocampus species. This study examined reproductive behaviour and early ontogenetic development of the Korean seahorse, Hippocampus ...

Marine infectious diseases can have large-scale impacts when they affect foundation species such as seagrasses and corals. Interactions between host and disease, in turn, may be modulated by multiple perturbations associated with global change. A case in

Dive surveys and eDNA detect contrasting macroalgal community composition in Nova Scotia, Canada
Abstract Morphological identification of macroalgae can be time‐consuming and species may be difficult to observe, collect, or identify, preventing detailed study on the distribution and ecology of many species. The use of eDNA in species surveillance and biodiversity assessments has gained considerable traction in studying macroalgae, as it provides ...

Zostera marina (eelgrass) is a submerged flowering plant often found in the coastal areas of Japan. Large amounts of suspended particles form in highly productive environments, such as eelgrass beds, and the behavior of these particles is expected to affect the surrounding microbial community.

Quantifying nitrogen loading and corresponding eutrophication symptoms in 7 bays in eastern New Brunswick, Canada [PDF]
Anthropogenic nitrogen loading has been identified as a significant cause of seagrass decline worldwide. In the Southern Gulf of St. Lawrence, eelgrass (Zostera marina) is the dominant macrophyte in shallow coastal bays and designated an ecologically ...
