Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) benefits from the availability of seagrass (Zostera marina) nursery habitat

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2014
The Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is a species of significant economic and historic importance but infamous for its decline. Apart from overfishing, the causes of this decline and its subsequent lack of recovery remain largely unresolved.

Seagrasses At The Islands Iturup And Urup Of Kuril Archipelago

open access: yesGeography, Environment, Sustainability, 2023
The islands Iturup and Urup of Kuril Archipelago have been understudied in respect of seagrasses. The research aimed to fill this gap. In 2019 during the expedition of the Russian Geographical Society a part of the coastline has been surveyed by walking,

Distribution patterns of Syllidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) from seagrass (Zostera marina and Z. noltei) meadows in the Ensenada de O Grove (Galicia, NW Spain)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2013
This paper describes the distribution and composition of the syllid fauna inhabiting seagrass meadows in the Ensenada de O Grove (NW Spain). Samples were collected on muddy sediments colonized by either Zostera marina L., Zostera noltei Hornemann or by a

Zostera marina on Anticosti Island [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1933
DURING a short visit to Anticosti Island in August this year it was observed that considerable quantities of Zostera marina were washed up on the beach at Ellis Bay. On closer examination it was found that many seeds nearly ripe were present in the material. The conclusion seems warranted that in this area at any rate there are no symptoms of the plant

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 ...

Influence of Rising Water Temperature on the Temperate Seagrass Species Eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) in the Northeast USA

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Sea surface temperature (SST) has increased worldwide since the beginning of the 20th century, a trend which is expected to continue. Changes in SST can have significant impacts on marine biota, including population-level shifts and alterations in ...

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

Identification of Two Novel Amalgaviruses in the Common Eelgrass (Zostera marina) and in Silico Analysis of the Amalgavirus +1 Programmed Ribosomal Frameshifting Sites

open access: yesThe Plant Pathology Journal, 2018
The genome sequences of two novel monopartite RNA viruses were identified in a common eelgrass (Zostera marina) transcriptome dataset. Sequence comparison and phylogenetic analyses revealed that these two novel viruses belong to the genus Amalgavirus in ...
