Biomonitoring environmental status in semi-enclosed coastal ecosystems using Zostera noltei meadows

Ecological Indicators, 2019
Semi enclosed waters, such as estuaries and lagoons, are vulnerable ecosystems that are experiencing persistent trace element (TE) contamination. Seagrasses have been reported worldwide as valuable bioindicator species for coastal contamination monitoring purpose.

Comparative study of sediment particle mixing in a Zostera noltei meadow and a bare sediment mudflat

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2014
Seasonal changes in sediment particle mixing, surface sediment and seagrass charac teristics, and benthic infaunal composition were measured in Arcachon Bay (France), within both a well-developed Zostera noltei meadow and a bare sediment mudflat.

Long-term sediment organic carbon remineralization in different seagrass and macroalgae habitats: implication for blue carbon storage

Frontiers in Marine Science
Seagrass and macroalgae beds are key blue carbon ecosystems in the ocean. However, coastal development and climate change are sparking a growing concern about the vulnerability of sediment organic carbon (OC) to remineralization after macrophyte ...

Transplantation of seagrass (Zostera noltei) as a potential nature-based solution for the restoration of historically contaminated mudflats

Science of The Total Environment
Within the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021-2030) framework, a Nature-based Solution (NbS) using Zostera noltei transplants was tested to restore a historically contaminated intertidal area. In-situ transplantation relied on patches of seagrass and sediment from a Donor meadow and its evolution was monitored for two years. The evaluation of the

The role of environment descriptors and seagrass biometrics in shaping macrobenthic assemblages’ structure in intertidal Zostera noltei meadows

Marine Environmental Research
The present study describes macroinvertebrate assemblages in three Zostera noltei meadows, following a salinity gradient along the Aveiro lagoon (Portugal). The main environmental descriptors and Z. noltei biometrics were studied to provide a model of the multivariate macroinvertebrate assemblage structure. The macroinvertebrate assemblage structure in
