Uncertainty in aquatic greenhouse gas flux estimates arises from subjective processing of floating chamber time series

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate quantification of greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes from aquatic systems is essential for constraining regional and global carbon budgets. Closed floating chambers are widely used to measure carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) fluxes at the water–air interface, yet large uncertainties persist due to subjective processing of chamber time ...

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

open access: yesPlants
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 ...

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

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

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 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 ...

Connecting the distribution and diversification of marine plants

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Integration of the evolutionary history with distribution of extant species is necessary to explain present‐day diversity, particularly for ‘foundation' species, such as seagrasses, which create habitats of socioecological relevance. Here, we resolved if varying evolutionary history of seagrass families has imprinted the distribution ranges of extant ...

Characteristics of Morphological and Physiological Indicators of Thalassia hemprichii and Environmental Factors in Xincun Bay, Hainan Island

open access: yesProgress in Fishery Sciences, 2023
Seagrasses demonstrate complex ecological functions, and their morphological and physiological indicators are affected by various environmental factors. In this study, we conducted six sampling surveys of a Thalassia hemprichii seagrass bed in Xincun Bay,

SeagrassTraitDB: a seagrasses traits database

open access: yes, 2022
Seagrasses are the only monocotyledonous flowering plants (angiosperms) which grow in marine environments. Seagrasses are found from shallow salty to brackish waters and inhabit environments from the tropics to the Arctic.

The dual role of detritus as resource and habitat: integrating non‐trophic processes to ecosystem dynamics

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The diversity of ecological interactions, both trophic and non‐trophic, is central to understanding the assembly of communities. However, we have yet to study non‐trophic processes through their action on ecosystem compartments such as detritus involved in both recycling and habitat provisioning.

Epiphytic hydroids on Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadows are winner organisms under future ocean acidification conditions: evidence from a CO2 vent system (Ischia Island, Italy)

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2021
Effects of ocean acidification (OA) on the plant phenology and colonization/settlement pattern of the hydrozoan epibiont community of the leaves of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica have been studied at volcanic CO2 vents off Ischia (Italy).

Eco‐anxiety in Tampa Bay: Prevalence, risk factors and recommendations for environmental practitioners

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract As the environmental crisis grows, concerns over its impact on mental health are rising. A growing body of research is investigating novel ecological emotions, with eco‐anxiety garnering significant attention. Yet much of the discourse has centred around clinical implications, leaving environmental practitioners feeling powerless to address ...
