Whole-system metabolism and CO2 fluxes in a Mediterranean Bay dominated by seagrass beds (Palma Bay, NW Mediterranean) [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2005
Planktonic and benthic incubations (bare and Posidonia oceanica vegetated sediments) were performed at monthly intervals from March 2001 to October 2002 in a seagrass vegetated area of the Bay of Palma (Mallorca, Spain). Results showed a contrast between

The natural recolonisation process of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile after the introduction of the Italo-algerian methane pipeline in the SW Mediterranean Sea. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This work investigates the recolonisation process and patterns of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica after a man-induced impact. The installation of a methane pipeline connecting Italy and Tunisia destroyed a large seagrass bed in the South Mediterranean ...

Posidonia oceanica Leaves as a Natural Filler for Poly(Butylene Succinate‐Co‐Adipate) Composites: Characterization and Biodegradation Assessment in Seawater

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
This study shows that incorporating 5–10 wt.% Posidonia oceanica, with or without micro‐talc, in PBSA preserves thermal stability, modifying crystallization behavior, and maintains good filler dispersion and interfacial adhesion. Mechanical properties are moderately stiffened.

Posidonia oceanica restoration review: Factors affecting seedlings

open access: yes, 2023
Seagrasses like Posidonia oceanica provide a wide range of benefits for the ocean and for the planet. Efforts in conservation and restoration have increased in the last 20 years to preserve P.

Posidonia oceanica Ashore Waste Biomass: State-of-the-Art and Valorisation Perspectives Within the Circular Economy Framework

open access: yesClean Technologies
The accumulation of dead leaves from the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica on beaches is a natural process that results in the formation of banquettes and, in some areas, spherical debris known as aegagropiles.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

Changes in seagrass polychaete assemblages after invasion by Caulerpa racemosa var. cylindracea (Chlorophyta: Caulerpales): community structure, trophic guilds and taxonomic distinctness

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2010
A two-year study focusing on the associated polychaete assemblages revealed that the degradation of the Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadows, together with the colonisation of rhizomes by invasive Caulerpa racemosa in the Balearic Islands, have produced ...

Biological Effect of Posidonia oceanica Seaweed on Some Pathogenic Microbes

open access: yesمجلة المختار للعلوم, 2020
Compared to other coasts, Libyan coasts are characterized by low levels of pollution. This makes them a suitable environment for marine diversity, especially seaweeds, which may be considered a source of new compounds that are biologically active in ...

Geographic Patterns of Head Morphology in Syngnathus typhle Across Marine Regions

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Morphometric analysis of Syngnathus typhle head shape shows distinct geographic patterns across Baltic, North, Atlantic, and Mediterranean marine regions, driven by variation in snout length, head depth, and eye position. Findings provide a non‐invasive baseline for conservation monitoring.
