Sentinel-2 remote sensing of Zostera noltei-dominated intertidal seagrass meadows
Remote Sensing of Environment, 2020 Accurate habitat mapping methods are urgently required for the monitoring, conservation, and management of blue carbon ecosystems and their associated services. This study focuses on exposed intertidal seagrass meadows, which play a major role in the functioning of nearshore ecosystems.

How can Sentinel‐2 contribute to seagrass mapping in shallow, turbid Baltic Sea waters?
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 328-346, June 2022., 2022 Sentinel‐2 provides unprecedented information on seagrass distribution in the Western Baltic Sea between 0 and 5‐m water depths. Classification results and accuracies are similar using only atmospherically or additionally water‐column corrected reflectance data. The turbid waters limit analyses to water depths less than 5 m.

Net‐Zero CO2 Germany—A Retrospect From the Year 2050
Earth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022 Abstract Germany 2050: For the first time Germany reached a balance between its sources of anthropogenic CO2 to the atmosphere and newly created anthropogenic sinks. This backcasting study presents a fictional future in which this goal was achieved by avoiding (∼645 Mt CO2), reducing (∼50 Mt CO2) and removing (∼60 Mt CO2) carbon emissions.

Factors modulating herbivory patterns in Cymodocea nodosa meadows
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 66, Issue 6, Page 2218-2233, June 2021., 2021 Abstract In coastal marine food webs, seagrass‐grazer interactions play a fundamental role in ecological processes by regulating the structure and functioning of plant communities. Therefore, assessing the strength of these seagrass‐grazer links and identifying the mechanisms that regulate these relationships are crucial to increasing our understanding

Restoring seagrass meadows in Basque estuaries: nature-based solution for successful management
Nature-Based Solutions, 2023 Seagrass meadows provide a wide variety of ecosystem goods and services (biodiversity maintenance, carbon sequestration, sediment oxygenation and enrichment, filtering, coastal protection, and nursery area for other species).

Carbon sequestration loss following Zostera noltei decline in the Arcachon Bay (France) [PDF]
Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2016 Abstract The worldwide decline of seagrass meadows may result in the loss of relevant ecosystem services such as the carbon sequestration within marine ecosystems. In this paper, net primary production (NPP) of Zostera noltei meadows was assessed in the Arcachon Bay (SW France) with the aim of understanding the impact of meadows decline on C ...
