Seagrasses of West Africa: New Discoveries, Distribution Limits and Prospects for Management

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
The onset of a major seagrass initiative in West Africa enabled important seagrass discoveries in several countries, in one of the least documented seagrass regions in the world.

Diversity and Abundance Patterns of Benthic Invertebrate Assemblages on Intertidal Estuarine Seagrass Beds in Aveiro (Portugal)

open access: yesBiology and Life Sciences Forum, 2022
Seagrass meadows are productive ecosystems and many animal species are dependent on them, including a wide diversity of invertebrates. This study aims to explore spatial diversity patterns of benthic invertebrates associated with Zostera noltei.

Sediment-water interactions with eelgrass (Zostera spp.) from Sinop shores of the Black Sea [PDF]

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2020
This study is to provide information on levels of the elements in leaves and roots-rhizomes of Zostera marina and Zostera noltei, their surrounding sea water and sediments collected from Akliman and Türkeli coastal areas of Sinop city in the Black Sea ...

Rare Earth Elements in the Seagrass Zostera noltei and Sediments from the Black Sea Coast of Crimea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In the present work, we assessed the contents of rare earth elements (REEs), including yttrium and scandium, in rhizomes and leaves of the widespread seagrass Zostera noltei Hornemann 1832 and in the nearby sediments from the Black Sea coast.

Nested Socio-Ecological Maps as a Spatial Planning Instrument for Estuary Conservation and Ecosystem-Based Management

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Estuaries are socio-ecological systems that can be represented as a holistic combination of biotic and abiotic conditions in spatially explicit units defined by: (i) the ecotope, as the integration of the physiotope (abiotic-homogeneous units) and the ...

Twenty years of monitoring reveal overfishing of bony fish stocks in the coastal national park Banc d’Arguin, in Mauritania

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 33, Issue 8, Page 833-844, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Along Africa’s western coast, many local communities rely on the ocean for their livelihood. Over the last decades, introductions of new fishing techniques along with globalizing trade have strongly changed local fishing practices. The Parc National du Banc d’Arguin (PNBA) in Mauritania had for centuries been subjected to an artisanal, low ...

Seagrass Patch Complexity Affects Macroinfaunal Community Structure in Intertidal Areas: An In Situ Experiment Using Seagrass Mimics

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
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.

Meadow trophic status regulates the nitrogen filter function of tropical seagrasses in seasonally eutrophic coastal waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 1906-1919, August 2023., 2023
Abstract The nutrient filter function is an important ecosystem service of seagrass meadows that mitigates the consequences of coastal eutrophication. In northeast Hainan in China, large seagrass areas were lost due to chronic eutrophication induced by untreated pond aquaculture effluents.

Eelgrass (Zostera spp.) associated phytomyxids are host‐specific congeneric parasites and predominant eukaryotes in the eelgrass rhizosphere on a global scale

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 8, Page 1522-1537, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Together with increasing environmental and anthropogenic pressures, pathogenic diseases are one of the important factors contributing to the ongoing decline of seagrass meadows worldwide; yet the diversity and ecology of the microorganisms acknowledged as seagrass parasites remain critically understudied.
