Assessing the ecological and economic impacts of a drastic decline in tropical seagrass meadows on fish and prawn assemblages

, 2016
Seagrass meadows provide valuable ecosystem services including increased biodiversity and enhanced fisheries production through the provision of nursery habitat, however, global coverage of seagrass ecosystems is declining rapidly. Recently the impact of

A sentinel watching over inter-tidal seagrass phenology across Western Europe and North Africa

Communications Earth & Environment
Seagrasses are marine flowering plants that form extensive meadows from the inter-tidal zone up to ~50 m depth. As biological and ecological Essential Biodiversity Variables, seagrass cover and composition provide a wide range of ecosystem services ...

Export from seagrass meadows contributes to seagrass C-sequestration

, 2017
Seagrasses export a substantial portion of their primary production, both in particulate and dissolved organic form, but the fate of this export production remains unaccounted for in terms of seagrass carbon sequestration. Here we review available evidence on the fate of seagrass carbon export to conclude that this represents a significant contribution

Pilot seagrass transplantation trials in Forsters Bay, Narooma, NSW [PDF]

, 2003
Summary: The last reported extent of seagrass coverage in the Wagonga Inlet, Narooma was given as 148 ha, although estimates of seagrass coverage vary considerably. The channel area consists of approximately 4 ha or 2.7% of this total coverage.
