The composition, abundance, and distribution of epiphytic macroalgae living in meadows of Zostera marina L. in the northwestern Iberian Peninsula are here analyzed. We identified 63 species: 40 red algae, 16 brown algae, and 7 green algae.

Seagrasses play a vital role in marine ecosystems worldwide. However, until recently these ecosystems were experiencing declines due to various global and local threats. In response to this issue, initiatives have been launched to combat seagrass loss by

CONDITIONS OF FORMING FOR THERAPEUTIC MUD IN THE VOEVODA BAY (AMUR BAY, JAPAN SEA)
The water dynamics and distribution of the sea grass Zostera marina are investigated as factors of the curative mud forming in the Voevoda Bay. The water currents are measured directly.

Seagrasses, as key ecosystem engineers in coastal ecosystems, contribute to enhancing diversity in comparison with nearby bare areas. It has been proved mainly for epifauna, but data on infauna are still scarce.

Connecting the distribution and diversification of marine plants
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 ...

Biodiversity in seagrass meadows in contrast to adjacent bare sand habitats of Foros Bay (Bulgarian Black Sea coast) assessed using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding [PDF]
The present study presents an initial eDNA-based assessment of metazoan biodiversity associated with Zostera seagrass meadows and neighbouring bare sand habitats in Foros Bay, located along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast.

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.
