Methane emission and sulfide levels increase in tropical seagrass sediments during temperature stress: A mesocosm experiment

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Climate change‐induced ocean warming is expected to greatly affect carbon dynamics and sequestration in vegetated shallow waters, especially in the upper subtidal where water temperatures may fluctuate considerably and can reach high levels at low tides.

Using Artificial Seagrass for Promoting Positive Feedback Mechanisms in Seagrass Restoration

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Worldwide, seagrass meadows are under threat. Consequently, there is a strong need for seagrass restoration to guarantee the provision of related ecosystem services such as nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration and habitat provision.

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Ten golden rules for restoration to secure resilient and just seagrass social‐ecological systems

open access: yesPlants, People, Planet
Societal Impact Statement Seagrass meadows are a globally important habitat subject to significant loss. As efforts to restore these sensitive habitats are hampered by their high cost and low levels of reliability, rigorous guidance is required to ...

Voices From the Coast: Stakeholder Participation and Perception on Creating a Marine Protected Area

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores participatory processes in the context of marine conservation, with a specific focus on recent initiatives undertaken by the Apulia region in Italy to establish a new Marine Protected Area (MPA). Employing a qualitative cross‐sectional methodology, the study investigates how local communities perceive and engage with the ...

Environmental and local habitat variables as predictors of trophic interactions in subtidal rocky reefs along the SE Pacific coast

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.

Uncertainty in aquatic greenhouse gas flux estimates arises from subjective processing of floating chamber time series

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate quantification of greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes from aquatic systems is essential for constraining regional and global carbon budgets. Closed floating chambers are widely used to measure carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) fluxes at the water–air interface, yet large uncertainties persist due to subjective processing of chamber time ...

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

Seagrass habitat in the Port of Thursday Island: Annual seagrass monitoring report 2023

open access: yes, 2023
[Extract] Seagrasses have been monitored in the Port of Thursday Island biennially since 2002 and annually since 2016. Nine seagrass meadows representing the range of different seagrass community types found in the Thursday Island region are monitored ...
