Abstract Introduction Seagrass meadows, composed of submersed aquatic vegetation (SAV), are changing due to climate change, increasing the need for adaptive restoration approaches such as incorporating native species that thrive under new environmental regimes.

Impacts of 'Zostera' eelgrasses on microbial community structure in San Diego coastal waters
Marine eelgrasses are influential to their surrounding environments through their many ecosystem services, ranging from the provisioning of food and shelter for marine life to serving as a natural defense against pollution and pathogenic bacteria. In the

Are migratory waterfowl vectors of seagrass pathogens?
Migratory waterfowl vector plant seeds and other tissues, but little attention has focused on the potential of avian vectoring of plant pathogens.

Abstract Introduction The flat oyster Ostrea angasi previously formed extensive reefs throughout temperate regions of Australia. These reefs were overharvested and destroyed after European colonization and have been functionally extinct for >150 years. While large‐scale subtidal O.

Major impacts and societal costs of seagrass loss on sediment carbon and nitrogen stocks
Seagrass meadows constitute important carbon sinks, and the ongoing global loss of seagrass habitats raises concerns about the release of carbon stored in their sediments.

Grazer diversity effects in an eelgrass–epiphyte–microphytobenthos system [PDF]
The dramatic loss of biodiversity and its consequences for ecosystem processes have been of considerable interest in recent ecological studies. However, the complex and interacting processes influencing diversity effects in multitrophic systems are still poorly understood.

ABSTRACT Three‐spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) have become dominant in many Baltic Sea coastal fish assemblages, yet life‐stage‐specific habitat use remains poorly understood. We surveyed shallow water habitats along the coast of Gotland, Sweden, to examine how juvenile and adult stickleback abundances relate to variables such as submersed

Eelgrass, Zostera marina L. widely spreads throughout all the coastal areas of the Korean Peninsula. However, some previously reported eelgrass populations disappeared. The disappearance was probably caused by anthropogenic disturbance such as reclamation and pollutant or exceeded nutrient release.

Abstract Climate change is restructuring ecological communities globally, yet the impacts are often underestimated or poorly resolved due to the lack of historical baselines. In temperate oceans, biologically diverse and socioeconomically important kelp forests are the marine ecosystem most threatened by climate change.
