Global Review of Blue Carbon Ecosystem Microbial Communities

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2025.
A thorough review of Blue Carbon Ecosystems' global and regional patterns in microbial diversity, functions, and distribution is currently missing. In this study, we have, for the first time, analysed 70 years (1930–2020) of data on archaeal, bacterial, and fungal diversity and reported functions in mangrove, saltmarsh, and seagrass ecosystems.

ESTIMACIÓN DE LA BIOMASA DE THALASSIA TESTUDINUM A PARTIR DE DATOS DE BIOMASA HÚMEDA/ Estimation of Thalassia testudinum dry biomass from wet biomass data

Revista de Investigaciones Marinas, 2014
La biomasa seca del macrofitobentos se emplea para analizar la abundancia, productividad y otros procesos que se producen en los ecosistemas. Pero el secado de la biomasa implica la destrucción del especimen, así como consumo de tiempo, electricidad.

Comparing Cloud Mask Products for Seagrass Mapping Over Sentinel‐2 Imagery: Toward a First National Seagrass Map for Venezuela

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Despite providing many valuable ecosystem services, seagrasses are a threatened habitat and their global distribution is not fully known. For example, Venezuela lacks a national seagrass map. An established regional mapping approach for seagrass exists for the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, but requires a long time window to obtain ...

Polychaeta (Annelida) associated with Thalassia testudinum in the northeastern coastal waters of Venezuela

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2006
Seasonal variations of polychaetes in a Thalassia testudinum bed were studied from June 2000 to April 2001 in Chacopata, northeastern Venezuela. Eight replicate samples were taken monthly with a 15 cm diameter core and the sediment was passed through a 0.

Going With the Flow? Relative Importance of Riverine Hydrologic Connectivity Versus Tidal Influence for Spatial Structure of Genetic Diversity and Relatedness in a Foundational Submersed Aquatic Plant

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
We assessed genotypic and genetic diversity in the submersed aquatic plant species Vallisneria americana in the Potomac River, USA, to understand how riverine hydrologic connectivity and tidal regime affected spatial genetic structure. We found striking differences in the structure of diversity, clonal growth, and relatedness in different tidal ...

Employing invertebrates to restore herbivory on Caribbean coral reefs: recent developments and remaining barriers

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, May 2025.
With coral reefs in global decline and further threatened by growing anthropogenic impacts, effective strategies for restoring these critical ecosystems are increasingly sought after. In Caribbean reefs, where disease outbreaks and fishing pressure have reduced herbivore abundances and facilitated widespread phase shifts from coral to algal dominance ...

How much seagrass does a dugong need? Metabolic rate of live wild dugongs, Dugong dugon, determined through indirect calorimetry (oxygen consumption)

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Deterioration of seagrass beds worldwide has raised concern about the future of dugongs because almost all aspects of their life history depend on availability of seagrass. Understanding their energy metabolism and consequently how much seagrass they need will inform protective conservation strategies for dugongs. This study determined resting

High species richness of epiphytic Mastogloia (Mastogloiales: Bacillariophyceae) on Thalassia testudinum along the coast of Campeche, southern Gulf of Mexico

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2020
Diatoms of the genus Mastogloia are naviculoid forms that are generally easy to discriminate due to the presence of marginal chambers known as partecta.

Wave‐driven plant reconfiguration modifies light availability in seagrass meadows

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 749-763, March 2025.
Abstract Seagrasses are considered foundation species in marine and estuarine ecosystems by contributing biomass, providing habitat, and damping waves and currents. Globally, seagrass health and primary productivity are threatened by factors that affect light availability, such as shading by algae and epiphytes, self‐shading, and increased water column
