Current distribution of Zostera seagrass meadows along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast (SW Black Sea, Bulgaria) (2010-2020) [PDF]
The current distribution of Zostera spp. seagrass meadows along the Bulgarian Black Sea coast was studied. We used a combination of historical and recent observations of the habitat along the studied coastline.

Interactive effects of co-occurring anthropogenic stressors on the seagrass, Zostera noltei
Abstract Coastal ecosystems are subjected to multiple co-occurring anthropogenic stressors which potentially interact to produce complex impacts on the structure and functioning of biological communities. Seagrass meadows are among the most rapidly declining coastal habitats on Earth.

Effect of Ecological Recovery on Macrophyte Dominance and Production in the Venice Lagoon
In the last decade, the Venice Lagoon showed a significant environmental recovery that changed the assemblages of macroalgal and aquatic angiosperm dominant species and significantly increased the primary production.

Seagrasses benefit from mild anthropogenic nutrient additions
Seagrasses are declining globally, in large part due to increased anthropogenic coastal nutrient loads that enhance smothering by macroalgae, attenuate light, and are toxic when in excessive concentrations of inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus.

The Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) has been introduced into the Atlantic European coast for commercial exploitation. In this region, the population dynamics of this clam species may be determined by the interaction with the native dwarf eelgrass ...

Long-term studies are necessary to establish trends and to understand seagrasses' spatial and temporal dynamic. Nevertheless, this type of research is scarce, as the required databases are often unavailable. The objectives of this study are to create a method for mapping the seagrass Zostera noltei using remote sensing techniques, and to apply it to ...

The macroecological abundance-occupancy relationship is well known; not so the potential one of patchiness with either or both. Following earlier work on the intertidal seagrass Zostera capensis in South Africa, interspecific macrofaunal patchiness ...

Metabolic Response of Zostera Noltei Transplants in a Historically Contaminated Ecosystem
In the midst of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and newly approved EU Nature Restoration Law, ecosystem restoration efforts have gained momentum. Still, monitoring tools and early warning protocols to evaluate restoration success are necessary.
