Assessing the Eutrophic Susceptibility of New Zealand Estuaries

open access: yesEstuaries and Coasts, 2020
We developed a method to predict the susceptibility of New Zealand estuaries to eutrophication. This method predicts macroalgae and phytoplankton responses to potential nutrient concentrations and flushing times, obtained nationally from simple dilution ...

Vegetation History and Estuarine Ecology of the Texas Gulf Coastal Plain in Relation to Climate and Sea-Level Changes According to Three Pollen Cores

open access: yesQuaternary, 2023
The vegetation history of the Texas Gulf Coastal Plain in the Holocene is considered according to pollen evidence from three coring sites where both terrestrial and marine ecology are reconstructed.

Scale-dependent influence of multiple environmental drivers on estuarine macrobenthic crustaceans

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Estuarine ecosystems are transitional environments, where land, freshwater, and marine ecosystems converge. Estuaries are also hotspots of ecological functioning and considered highly economically and culturally valuable for the ecosystem services they ...

Concurrent infections by Bonamia species (Haplosporidia) do not cause more intense infections

open access: yesParasitology
Recently introduced parasites are predicted to cause more severe infections because of a lack of host-parasite co-evolution. When new parasites co-occur with similar parasites they may compete for resources within a host, with mixed species infections ...

Habitat complexity influences the structure of food webs in Great Barrier Reef seagrass meadows

open access: yesEcosphere, 2019
Structural habitat complexity is a fundamental attribute influencing ecological food webs. Simplification of complex habitats occurs due to both natural and anthropogenic pressures that can alter productivity of food webs.

Estimating Effects of Sea Level Rise on Benthic Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning in a Large Meso-Tidal Coastal Lagoon

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Estuaries are among the world’s most productive ecosystems, but due to their geographic location, they are at the forefront of anthropogenic pressures. Sea level rise (SLR) is one major consequence of climate change that poses a threat to estuaries with ...

Estuaries as Filters for Riverine Microplastics: Simulations in a Large, Coastal-Plain Estuary

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Public awareness of microplastics and their widespread presence throughout most bodies of water are increasingly documented. The accumulation of microplastics in the ocean, however, appears to be far less than their riverine inputs, suggesting that there
