Habitat selection of the pink shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis and the blue crab Callinectes sapidus in an estuary in southern Brazil: influence of salinity and submerged seagrass meadows

Nauplius, 2014
This study was conducted in two estuarine inlets (Saco da Mangueira and Saco do Arraial) at the Patos Lagoon estuary, southern Brazil. The changes in relative abundance and size of post-larvae and juvenile shrimp Farfantepenaeus paulensis and juvenile ...

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

Continual migration of patches within a Massachusetts seagrass meadow limits carbon accretion and storage

Communications Earth & Environment
Seagrass meadows facilitate the capture and storage of organic carbon, but spatial variability in carbon has been observed among and within meadows.

The role of microbiome and melatonin priming on seagrass (Cymodocea nodosa) seed germination and plant development

reservedSeagrasses are vital marine angiosperms that form extensive underwater meadows, providing numerous ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration, coastal protection, and serving as critical habitats for diverse marine species.

Patterns of carbon and nitrogen accumulation in seagrass (Posidonia oceanica) meadows of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea

The variability in stocks and accumulation rates of organic carbon (Corg), nitrogen (N), and carbonate (CaCO3) was studied in fifteen Posidonia oceanica meadows spread throughout the South Aegean Sea (Greece).

Impact of seagrass meadows on wave currents

, 2021
This thesis presents the results obtained in the study realized in the (CIEM) wave flume at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, (UPC) with the purpose of evaluating the impact of seagrass meadows on wave currents to determine their feasibility as nature base solutions (NBS) against such hazards.

Seagrass meadows of the Wakatobi National Park

, 2011
Seagrasses are abundant marine plants that form large areas of shallow water marine habitat throughout the Wakatobi National Park (WNP). Although there are only a small number of seagrass species in the region, the habitat they create contains a diverse ...
