SUITABLE MORDANTS FOR DYEING POSIDONIA OCEANICA FIBERS [PDF]
Posidonia oceanica is the most extended sea grass in the Mediterranean Sea. Important quantities of this alga are accumulated on coasts making necessary the cleaninness of those beaches where it can be found.

Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica accumulates sunscreen UV filters
Certain ultra-violet filter (UVF) components of solar creams have negative impacts on coral reefs and have been prohibited in international tourism destinations (i.e., Hawaii, Florida, and Palau) to protect coral reefs. In the Mediterranean coasts which are also hotspots of international tourism and where endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica forms ...

Variability of the low-frequency acoustic response along leaf blades and between species of seagrass (Posidonia oceanica and Cymodocea nodosa) [PDF]
An acoustic resonator was used to measure the low-frequency (1–5 kHz) effective acoustic properties of the leaf blades of two Mediterranean seagrass species (Posidonia oceanica and Cymodocea nodosa). Variability along blades was assessed by measuring the

Revalorization of Posidonia oceanica Waste for the Thermochemical Production of Biochar
Every year, many tonnes of Posidonia oceanica are removed from Mediterranean beaches to maintain the quality and pleasure of use of the beaches. Most of this waste ends up in landfills, entailing removal costs.

Linking Seed Photosynthesis and Evolution of the Australian and Mediterranean Seagrass Genus Posidonia. [PDF]
Recent findings have shown that photosynthesis in the skin of the seed of Posidonia oceanica enhances seedling growth. The seagrass genus Posidonia is found only in two distant parts of the world, the Mediterranean Sea and southern Australia.

Dimethylsulfoniopropionate and dimethylsulfoxide in Posidonia oceanica [PDF]
Abstract The present work aims at determining the natural variability of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) contents in the seagrass Posidonia oceanica, which is the largest producer of these molecules reported to data among coastal autotrophs.

Determination of dimethylsulfoniopropionate and dimethylsulfoxide in Posidonia oceanica leaf tissue
In order to investigate the possible use of the dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) ratio as a stress indicator of Posidonia oceanica a method for the determination of these quantities was developed for this type of material. •
