Science and Management of the Introduced Seagrass Zostera japonica in North America
Environmental Management, 2013Healthy seagrass is considered a prime indicator of estuarine ecosystem function. On the Pacific coast of North America, at least two congeners of Zostera occur: native Zostera marina, and introduced, Zostera japonica. Z. japonica is considered "invasive" and therefore, ecologically and economically harmful by some, while others consider it benign or ...

A study of pore-water sulfide and eelgrass (Zostera japonica and Zostera marina) in Padilla Bay, Washington [PDF]
Two species of eelgrass can be found in Padilla Bay, Washington (Zostera japonica and Zostera marina) and act as a bioindicators of ecosystem health. Many factors can contribute to the status of an eelgrass bed, including light, temperature, salinity, and nutrients.

Seagrasses (Zostera marina) and (Zostera japonica) Display a Differential Photosynthetic Response to TCO2: Implications for Acidification Mitigation [PDF]
"Excess atmospheric CO2 is being absorbed at an unprecedented rate by the global and coastal oceans, shifting the baseline pCO2 and altering seawater carbonate chemistry in a process known as ocean acidification (OA). Recent attention has been given to near-shore vegetated habitats, such as seagrass beds, which may have the potential to mitigate the ...

Evidence for synonymizing Zostera americana den hartog with Zostera japonica Aschers. & Graebn.
Aquatic Botany, 1982Abstract A numerical analysis of four species of the Zostera subgenus Zosterella was conducted to determine the taxonomic position of Zostera americana den Hartog. Results of principal components analysis support the determination that Z. americana on the northeast Pacific coast is synonymous with Zostera japonica Aschers. & Graebn.
