Sustainability is a key principle in natural resource management, and it involves operational
efficiency, minimisation of environmental impact and socio-economic considerations; all of …

The paper gives an overview of some of the large, shallow, semi-enclosed coastal systems
(SECS) in Europe, These SECS are important both from the ecological and the economic …

Denitrification, the reduction of the nitrogen (N) oxides, nitrate (NO3−) and nitrite (NO2−), to
the gases nitric oxide (NO), nitrous oxide (N2O), and dinitrogen (N2), is important to primary …

Microalgae have been promoted as the next frontier of green biotechnology and gained
widespread attention as desirable feedstocks for biofuels. Using conservative assumptions …

Nutrient loading to coastal bay ecosystems is of a similar magnitude as that to deeper, river-
fed estuaries, yet our understanding of the eutrophication process in these shallow systems …

Nitrous oxide is a powerful, long‐lived greenhouse gas, but we know little about the role of
estuarine areas in the global N2O budget. This review summarizes 56 studies of N2O fluxes …

Microalgae contribute up to 60% of the oxygen content in the Earth's atmosphere by
absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen during photosynthesis. Microalgae are …

This literature review summarizes the limiting factors for seagrass occurrence, and the effect
positive feedbacks in seagrass systems have on these threshold levels. Minimum water …

Understanding matter circulation in the biosphere constitutes one of the fundamental
research objectives for ecologists. Stocks of materials, their distribution, and their fluxes …

Awarding CO2 offset credits may incentivize seagrass restoration projects and help reverse
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from global seagrass loss. However, no study has …
