Morphology of ctenostome bryozoans: 5. Sundanella, with description of a new species from the Western Atlantic and the Multiporata concept

Journal of Morphology, Volume 283, Issue 9, Page 1139-1162, September 2022., 2022
Sundanellid ctenostomes are a little investigated group of ctenostome bryozoans of ambiguous phylogenetic affiliation. In this study, we describe the soft‐body morphology of sundanellids from two localities, Singapore and Florida, to find characters elucidating the detailed anatomy of these animals and find characters supporting its relationship to ...

Seagrass development in terrigenous‐influenced inner ramp settings during the middle Eocene (Urbasa–Andia Plateau, Western Pyrenees, North Spain)

Sedimentology, Volume 69, Issue 1, Page 301-344, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Since their first occurrence in the late Cretaceous, seagrasses have played a major role in carbonate production and sedimentation across shallow‐water and nearshore environments, sustaining a prolific carbonate factory and contributing to sediment accumulation through the combination of baffling and trapping effects.

Sulfide intrusion in the tropical seagrasses Thalassia testudinum and Syringodium filiforme

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2009
Sulfur and oxygen dynamics in the seagrasses Thalassia testudinum and Syringodium filiforme and their sediments were studied in the US Virgin Islands (USVI) in order to explore sulfide intrusion into tropical seagrasses. Four study sites were selected based on the iron concentration in sediments and on proximity to anthropogenic nutrient sources ...

Diversity of Seagrass-Associated Decapod Crustaceans in a Tropical Reef Lagoon Prior to Large Environmental Changes: A Baseline Study

Diversity, 2020
The community composition of decapods associated with subtidal tropical seagrass meadows was analyzed in a pristine reef lagoon on the Mexican Caribbean coast in the summer of 1995 and winter of 1998.

Water quality, isoscapes and stoichioscapes of seagrasses indicate general P limitation and unique N cycling in shallow water benthos of Bermuda [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2015
Striking spatial patterns in stable isotope ratios (isoscapes) and elemental ratios (stoichioscapes) of seagrass leaves and the water column nutrients indicate general P-limitation of both water column and benthic primary productivity on the Bermuda ...

Changes in seagrass species composition in northwestern Gulf of Mexico estuaries: effects on associated seagrass fauna.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The objective of this study was to measure the communities associated with different seagrass species to predict how shifts in seagrass species composition may affect associated fauna.

Live and Live-Dead Intraspecific Morphometric Comparisons as Proxies for Seagrass Stability in Conservation Paleobiology

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Comparisons of life and death assemblages are commonly conducted to detect environmental change, including when historical records of live occurrences are unavailable.

Remote Sensing of Seagrass Leaf Area Index and Species: The Capability of a Model Inversion Method Assessed by Sensitivity Analysis and Hyperspectral Data of Florida Bay

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017
The capability for mapping two species of seagrass, Thalassia testudinium and Syringodium filiforme, by remote sensing using a physics based model inversion method was investigated.

The distribution of seagrasses in Dominica, Lesser Antilles

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2010
Seagrass beds are the largest organism-built marine habitat in Dominica, yet have only been surveyed since 2007. Standardized examinations along a depth gradient between 0 and 24m, focusing on magnoliophyte species composition and benthic cover of shoots
