Making nature's value visible to humans is a key issue for the XXI century and it is crucial to
identify and measure natural capital to incorporate benefits or costs of changes in ecosystem …

Here we review the multiple interactions between the endemic Mediterranean seagrass,
Posidonia oceanica, and coastal geomorphologic processes as an outstanding example of …

The study of a 475cm core (spanning 4316 y BP) sampled in a Posidonia oceanica meadow
(Portlligat Bay, NW Mediterranean) allowed us to make the first detailed description of the …

The use of data, including bathymetry, backscatter intensity and the angular response of
backscatter intensity, collected using multibeam sonar (MBS) systems to recognise seabed …

It is widely accepted that light availability sets the lower limit of seagrass bathymetric
distribution, while the upper limit depends on the level of disturbance by currents and waves …

In the last decades, the increasing necessity to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2)
concentrations has intensified interest in quantifying the capacity of coastal ecosystems to …

We performed a morpho-stratigraphic study of the Tirso River incised valley (Sardinia Island,
western Mediterranean Sea), an erosional feature crossing the Sinis fault, a major normal …

The aim of this study is to present the results of the first complete marine habitat mapping
through marine remote sensing techniques in Gyaros Island, a remote island in the …

Posidonia oceanica seagrass litter is commonly found along sandy shores in the
Mediterranean region, forming structures called banquettes, which are often removed in …

Ecosystems threatened by climate change can boost their resilience by developing spatial
patterns. Spatially regular patterns in wave-exposed seagrass meadows are attributed to …
