Detecting subtle shifts in ecosystem functioning in a dynamic estuarine environment

DR Pratt, AM Lohrer, SF Thrush, JE Hewitt… - PLos one, 2015 - journals.plos.org
Identifying the effects of stressors before they impact ecosystem functioning can be
challenging in dynamic, heterogeneous 'real-world'ecosystems. In aquatic systems, for …

Effects of detrital subsidies on soft-sediment ecosystem function are transient and source-dependent

RV Gladstone-Gallagher, AM Lohrer, CJ Lundquist… - PLoS …, 2016 - journals.plos.org
Detrital subsidies from marine macrophytes are prevalent in temperate estuaries, and their
role in structuring benthic macrofaunal communities is well documented, but the resulting …

Changes in the macrobenthic infaunal community of the Southern California continental margin over five decades in relation to oceanographic factors

DJ Gillett, SB Weisberg, SR Alin, D Cadien… - Marine Ecology …, 2023 - int-res.com
Climate change has altered the physiochemical conditions of the coastal ocean but effects

Calcium carbonate alters the functional response of coastal sediments to eutrophication-induced acidification

TP Drylie, HR Needham, AM Lohrer, A Hartland… - Scientific reports, 2019 - nature.com
Coastal ocean acidification research is dominated by laboratory-based studies that cannot
necessarily predict real-world ecosystem response given its complexity. We enriched …

Response and resilience of estuarine benthic ecosystems to anthropogenic pressures

TP Drylie - 2020 - researchcommons.waikato.ac.nz
Human activities are altering coastal environments at local and global scales with largely
unknown consequences. Catchment land-use changes increase the rates of delivery of fine …

Comparative estuarine dynamics: trophic linkages and ecosystem function

J Kenworthy - 2016 - research-repository.st-andrews.ac …
Estuarine systems are of crucial importance to the provision of goods and services on a

[PDF][PDF] Cross-boundary detrital subsidies: Detrital export and effects on receiving intertidal soft-sediment ecosystems

RV Gladstone-Gallagher - 2017 - researchcommons.waikato.ac.nz
Ecosystems are often connected by the transfer of resource 'subsidies' across their
boundaries. In temperate estuaries, marine macrophyte leaf litter represents an obvious and …
