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

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

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2014 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 0.5 mm mesh sieve. A total of 1,013 specimens, belonging to 35 species, was collected.

Discovery of a novel potexvirus in the seagrass Thalassia testudinum from Tampa Bay, Florida
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, 2019 Seagrass meadows are important coastal ecosystems that are declining worldwide. Given the profound impact of the microbiome on plant health, exploration of the seagrass microbiome is critical for proper ecosystem management and conservation.

A Review of Techniques for Transplantation of Turtle Grass, Thalassia testudinum
, 1988 Thalassia testudinum (Turtle Grass) is vitally important to the ecology of coastal regions in South Florida and the Caribbean. Due to its high productivity, sediment-binding ability, and frequency as a habitat for many commercially valuable species ...
