Seagrass meadows are at increasing risk of thermal stress and recent work has shown that water temperature around seagrass meadows could be used as an indicator for seagrass condition. Satellite thermal data have not been linked to the thermal properties

In the coastal ecosystem, seagrass meadows play a vital role in delivering ecosystem services such as provision, control, and support. However, this ecosystem is one of the most threatened in the coastal environment, and it has been degraded as a result ...

Abstract Introduction Coastal ecosystems have experienced widespread global degradation, prompting substantial investment in restoration. While structural recovery is well documented, whether restoration reestablishes the functional diversity (FD) of animal communities and how recovery unfolds through time remains poorly resolved.

The measurement of seagrass photosynthesis using pulse amplitude modulated (PAM) fluorometry and its practical applications, specifically in regard to transplantation [PDF]
Photosynthetic activity of three seagrass species, Posidonia sinuosa Cambridge et Kuo, Posidonia australis Hook. f. and Halophila ovalis (R. Br.) Hook., growing in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia, was assessed using an underwater pulse amplitude ...

Estimating the greenhouse gas emission abatement potential of tidal introduction in Australia
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands store higher amounts of organic carbon and sequester it at higher rates in soil relative to terrestrial ecosystems. However, they have been extensively drained, excavated, or modified, often to allow agriculture. Restoring degraded coastal wetlands can be an important contribution to climate change mitigation by ...

Limited blue carbon potential of intertidal seagrass meadows in the Wadden Sea – a case study in a tidal basin [PDF]
Seagrass meadows are widely recognized as a key blue carbon ecosystem. However, their sequestration potential varies remarkably between species and regions.

Abstract Introduction Ecological restoration projects are rapidly expanding in size, complexity, and frequency globally, driven by international agreements and an increased recognition of the efficacy of actions for biodiversity. Upscaling restoration will increasingly necessitate the restoration of multiple physically or functionally connected ...

What do you mean, “seascape restoration”? Definitions and global practice
Abstract Introduction Restoration of marine ecosystems is scaling up, fuelled by the growing recognition of the ecological and socio‐economic benefits sustained by nature and the need to recover what has been lost or degraded. Parallel to this, there is an increasing trend toward “multi‐species,” “multi‐habitat,” and “seascape” restoration projects ...

The decline of seagrass meadows is a continuing global concern, and seed‐based restoration provides a scalable approach to recovering lost and degraded meadows. Such approaches require large quantities of seed to be collected, processed, and often stored for months until deployment.
