Dissolved Oxygen in Heterogeneous Environments Dictates the Metabolic Rate and Thermal Sensitivity of a Tropical Aquatic Crab

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Oxygen availability, together with water temperature, greatly varies in coastal habitats, especially in those characterized by elevated primary production. In this study, we investigate the combined role of dissolved oxygen and temperature on the thermal

A Review of Factors Influencing the Seagrass-Sea Cucumber Association in Tropical Seagrass Meadows

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
In the tropical ecosystem, sea cucumbers are associated with seagrass meadows in various ways, often forming a network of ecological interactions. From this myriad of interactions, the trophic relationship between the seagrasses and sea cucumbers has ...

Pigment and fatty acid profiling reveal differences in epiphytic microphytes among tropical Thalassodendron ciliatum meadows

, 2020
Tropical seagrasses support abundant and diverse epiphytic microalgae that form the base of seagrass food webs. To help better understand the influence of structural variability of tropical seagrass meadows on associated microalgal epiphytes, we ...

Seagrass can mitigate negative ocean acidification effects on calcifying algae [PDF]

, 2019
The ultimate effect that ocean acidification (OA) and warming will have on the physiology of calcifying algae is still largely uncertain. Responses depend on the complex interactions between seawater chemistry, global/local stressors and species-specific

What is blue carbon?

EDIS
Vegetated coastal ecosystems, including mangroves, salt marshes, and seagrasses, store large amounts of carbon in plant biomass and underlying sediments, known as blue carbon. There is increasing interest among policymakers and natural resource managers

Assessment of Seagrass and Macrobenthic Algae in Pujada Bay, Mati, Davao Oriental

Davao Research Journal, 2003
The Status of the existing seagrass and algae meadows of Pujada Bay, Mati, Davao Oriental was assessed from September 2001 to August 2002. The structure of seagrass and algae communities was determined using the Transect-Quadrat Method.

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

FEMS 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.

Scarring of Florida’s seagrasses: assessment and management options [PDF]

, 1995
Management programs that address scarring of seagrasses should be based on an approach that involves (1) education, (2) channel marking, (3) increased enforcement, and (4) limited-motoring zones. Aerial monitoring and photography of the managed area

Sexual reproduction vs. clonal propagation in the recovery of a seagrass meadow after an extreme weather event [PDF]

, 2019
Marine flowering plants can reproduce sexually and clonally, and the relative contribution of these two modes can be dependent on the environmental conditions.

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

BMEMat, 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.
