Bridging soil biogeochemistry and microbial communities (archaea and bacteria) in tropical seagrass meadows

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionSeagrass meadows are among the most valuable ecosystems, providing numerous ecosystem services and functions. Despite its importance, there is a lack of knowledge about soil’s biogeochemical process variability, which can control ...

Benthic Flow and Mixing in a Shallow Shoal Grass (Halodule wrightii) Fringe

Geosciences, 2021
Mean flow and turbulence measurements collected in a shallow Halodule wrightii shoal grass fringe highlighted significant heterogeneity in hydrodynamic effects over relatively small spatial scales. Experiments were conducted within the vegetation canopy (

Small scale change in mollusk diversity along a depth gradient in a seagrass bed off Cabo Frio, (Southeast Brazil)

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2011
We know little about animal communities in seagrass beds in the southeast Atlantic. The aim of the current study was to characterize and quantify the mollusk assemblages within these unique tropical seagrass habitats at a spatial scale fine enough to ...

The Abundance and Persistence of Temperate and Tropical Seagrasses at Their Edge-of-Range in the Western Atlantic Ocean

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Species, including seagrasses, at their range limits are uniquely vulnerable to climate change. In the western Atlantic Ocean, the biogeographic transition zone between temperate and tropical ecosystems is recognized as one of several global hotspots ...

Dynamics of the aboveground and belowground structure of the seagrass Halodule wrightii

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1988
Dynamics of the aboveground and belowground structure of the seagrass Halodule wrighti~ (Asherson) Asherson was studied from April 1984 to March 1985. Seasonality of plant structure was evident, with the highest abundance of short shoots and belowground structures occuning in June.
