Pedogenic Processes in a Posidonia oceanica Mat [PDF]
Soil Systems, 2020 Scientists studying seagrasses typically refer to their substratum as sediment, but recently researchers have begun to refer to it as a soil. However, the logistics of sampling underwater substrata and the fragility of these ecosystems challenge their study using pedological methods.

Posidonia oceanica Cartography and Evolution of the Balearic Sea (Western Mediterranean)
Remote Sensing, 2023 The Balearic coastline presents an environmental and biological heterogeneity, which confers great complexity on the marine environment and treasures important biodiversity, both at the level of species and marine communities.

Real-Time Seafloor Segmentation and Mapping [PDF]
ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesPosidonia oceanica meadows are a species of seagrass highly dependent on rocks for their survival and conservation. In recent years, there has been a concerning global decline in this species, emphasizing the critical need for efficient monitoring and ...

Wanted dead or alive : high diversity of macroinvertebrates associated with living and ’dead’ Posidonia oceanica matte [PDF]
, 2006 The Mediterranean endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica forms beds characterised by a dense leaf canopy and a thick root-rhizome ‘matte’. Death of P. oceanica shoots leads to exposure of the underlying matte, which can persist for many years, and is ...

Transformation of Posidonia oceanica residues to bioethanol
Industrial Crops and Products, 2013 Abstract Posidonia oceanica is important species of the marine ecosystems. However, large quantities of residues reaching the coastlines create pollution and high costs are required for their disposal. The objective was to investigate the bioconversion efficiency of P.

Biogeomorphology of the Mediterranean Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadows [PDF]
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2016 AbstractHere we review the multiple interactions between the endemic Mediterranean seagrass, Posidonia oceanica, and coastal geomorphologic processes as an outstanding example of biogeomorphology, taking into account recent advances in the field. Seagrass meadows are among the most important elements for the functioning of marine coastal ecosystems ...
