Seagrass-Associated Biodiversity Influences Organic Carbon in a Temperate Meadow

open access: yesOceans
There is increasing interest in the role that seagrasses play in storing carbon in the context of climate mitigation, but many knowledge gaps in the factors controlling this storage exist.

The seagrass holobiont: understanding seagrass-bacteria interactions and their role in seagrass ecosystem functioning

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2019
ABSTRACT This review shows that the presence of seagrass microbial community is critical for the development of seagrasses; from seed germination, through to phytohormone production and enhanced nutrient availability, and defence against pathogens and saprophytes.

A Critical Gap in Seagrass Protection: Impact of Anthropogenic Off-Shore Nutrient Discharges on Deep Posidonia oceanica Meadows

open access: yesPlants, 2023
In the Mediterranean, anthropogenic pressures (specifically those involving nutrient loads) have been progressively moved to deeper off-shore areas to meet current policies dealing with the protection of marine biodiversity (e.g., European Directives ...

Local competition and metapopulation processes drive long-term seagrass-epiphyte population dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is well known that ecological processes such as population regulation and natural enemy interactions potentially occur over a range of spatial scales, and there is a substantial body of literature developing theoretical understanding of the interplay ...

Sowing the Seeds of Seagrass Recovery Using Hessian Bags

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Seagrass meadows are an important wetland habitat that have been degraded globally but have an important carbon storage role. In order to expand the restoration of these productive and biodiverse habitats methods are required that can be used for large ...

Tracking Nitrogen Source Using δ15N Reveals Human and Agricultural Drivers of Seagrass Degradation across the British Isles

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Excess nutrients shift the ecological balance of coastal ecosystems, and this eutrophication is an increasing problem across the globe. Nutrient levels may be routinely measured, but monitoring rarely attempts to determine the source of these nutrients ...

The Seasonal Change Detection of Seagrass Extent using Google Earth Engine [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
Seagrass ecosystems in eastern Indonesia play a crucial role in blue carbon storage, slowing climate change by absorbing and storing carbon in their sediments for decades.

Historical Analysis Exposes Catastrophic Seagrass Loss for the United Kingdom

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The spatial extent of seagrass is poorly mapped, and knowledge of historical loss is limited. Here, we collated empirical and qualitative data using systematic review methods to provide unique analysis on seagrass occurrence and loss in the United ...
