Simulation of suitable habitats for typical vegetation in the Yellow River Estuary based on complex hydrodynamic processes

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Estuarine ecosystems are influenced by the combination of freshwater runoff and ocean tides, and the natural environment is intricate and complex, with special natural environmental conditions and biological habitat characteristics.

14-3-3 Gene of Zostera Japonica ZjGRF1 Participates in Gibberellin Signaling Pathway [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology Reports, 2021
Abstract Background Zostera japonica (Z. japonica) is a unique seagrass species in Asia, which has important ecological value. Gibberellin is an important plant hormone, which plays an important role in the regulation of plant growth and development, including seed longevity, seed germination, anti-aging, hypocotyl elongation, leaf development,

Seasonal Dynamics of Bathyarchaeota-Dominated Benthic Archaeal Communities Associated with Seagrass (Zostera japonica) Meadows

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Little is known about the seasonal dynamic of archaeal communities and their potential ecological functions in temperate seagrass ecosystems. In this study, seasonal changes in diversity, community structure, and potential metabolic functions of benthic ...

How Turbidity Mediates the Combined Effects of Nutrient Enrichment and Herbivory on Seagrass Ecosystems

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
While nutrient enrichment and herbivory have been well recognized as the main driving factors of seagrass meadow fragmentation and degradation, there is limited understanding of how their relative importance shifts across large spatial scales where ...

Blue Carbon Stocks Along the Pacific Coast of North America Are Mainly Driven by Local Rather Than Regional Factors. [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochem Cycles
Abstract Coastal wetlands, including seagrass meadows, emergent marshes, mangroves, and temperate tidal swamps, can efficiently sequester and store large quantities of sediment organic carbon (SOC). However, SOC stocks may vary by ecosystem type and along environmental or climate gradients at different scales.

Reproductive Strategies of the Seagrass Zostera japonica Under Different Geographic Conditions in Northern China

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Seagrasses form a unique group of submerged marine angiosperms capable of both sexual and asexual reproduction. The amounts of sexual and asexual reproduction differ within some species relying on geographic location and environmental factors.

Comparing ichthyofaunal composition between Zostera japonica beds (Plantae, Alismatales, Zosteraceae) and adjacent bare ground within a small temperate estuary in southern Japan [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria
Zostera japonica Ascherson et Graebner, 1907 is a dominant seagrass species that forms coastal habitats in the northwestern Pacific. Bare areas adjacent to these seagrass beds are also recognized as fish habitat.

Trophic Diversity and Food Web Structure of Vegetated Habitats Along a Coastal Topographic Gradient

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Land–sea interactions in coastal wetlands create heterogeneous vegetated habitats with regular zonation along a topographic gradient. However, it’s unclear how the trophic diversity of communities and trophic structure of food webs change along the ...

Terrestrial Laser Scanning Reveals Seagrass Microhabitat Structure on a Tideflat

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2015
Local-scale environmental heterogeneity can provide microhabitats that influence the spatial distribution of competing species. Microhabitats may influence the distribution of seagrasses along elevation gradients, but difficulty measuring intertidal ...
