Brown Tide Symposium and Workshop : 15-16 July 1991 [PDF]

, 1991
The 'brown tide' bloom of an aberrant Chrysophyte sp. phytoplankter occurred for more than 18 months and extended into both upper (cover map) and lower Laguna Madre, Texas.

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

Ecography, 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.

A Facilitation Cascade Enhances Local Biodiversity in Seagrass Beds

Diversity, 2019
Invertebrate diversity can be a key driver of ecosystem functioning, yet understanding what factors influence local biodiversity remains uncertain. In many marine and terrestrial systems, facilitation cascades where primary foundation and/or autogenic ...

Temporal shifts in kelp forest structure and distribution largely reflect recent ocean warming trends

Ecography, EarlyView.
Ocean warming is driving the redistribution of species at a global scale. Biogeographic transition zones are hotspots of species range shifts, as both warm‐ and cold‐adapted species are found toward contrasting range edges. While anecdotal evidence suggests some distributional shifts have occurred in the northeast Atlantic, the empirical evidence base ...

Transcriptomic Regulation of Aquaporins During Seed Germination in the Marine Seagrass Cymodocea nodosa

Plants
Seed germination is a key phase that transitions the seed from dormancy to active growth, where imbibition emerges as the initial event, followed by aquaporin-mediated regulation of cellular water that supports metabolic reactivation under favourable ...

Synergistic Impacts of Co‐Exposure to Microplastics and Vibrio harveyi on the Immune and Stress Responses of the Big‐Belly Seahorse Hippocampus abdominalis

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Synergistic effects of microplastic and Vibrio harveyi co‐exposure on big‐belly seahorse (Hippocampus abdominalis). Seahorses were exposed to microplastics (50 beads/L of 0.2 μm SMP and 1.0 μm LMP) and injected with V. harveyi (1 × 103 CFU/mL).

Heatwave Effects on the Photosynthesis and Antioxidant Activity of the Seagrass Cymodocea nodosa under Contrasting Light Regimes

Oceans, 2021
Global climate change, specifically the intensification of marine heatwaves, affect seagrasses. In the Ria Formosa, saturating light intensities may aggravate heatwave effects on seagrasses, particularly during low spring tides.

Effects of CO2 enrichment on photosynthesis, growth, and nitrogen metabolism of the seagrass Zostera noltii [PDF]

, 2012
Seagrass ecosystems are expected to benefit from the global increase in CO2 in the ocean because the photosynthetic rate of these plants may be C-i-limited at the current CO2 level.

Demonstration, validation, and application of hyperspectral microscopy for the collection of cyanobacterial spectral signatures

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyanobacterial and other algal blooms are an environmental concern in waterbodies worldwide. While these blooms are a nuisance for recreational activities, they can also be harmful to human and wildlife health when the algae produce and release toxins.

The Microbial Communities of Leaves and Roots Associated with Turtle Grass (Thalassia testudinum) and Manatee Grass (Syringodium filliforme) are Distinct from Seawater and Sediment Communities, but Are Similar between Species and Sampling Sites

Microorganisms, 2018
Seagrasses are vital members of coastal systems, which provide several important ecosystem services such as improvement of water quality, shoreline protection, and serving as shelter, food, and nursery to many species, including economically important ...
