Seagrass distribution is controlled by light availability, especially at the deepest edge of the
meadow. Light attenuation due to both natural and anthropogenically-driven processes …

Floating mats of vegetation serve to transfer biomass, nutrients and energy across marine
habitats and alter the spectral properties of the sea surface. Here, spectral measurements …

Seagrasses provide a number of critical ecosystem services, including habitat for numerous
species, sediment stabilization, and shoreline protection. Ariel photography is a useful tool …

The distribution of radiant energy in plant canopies determines one of the fundamental
interactions of biophysical ecology—that of energy exchange between photosynthetic …

Seagrasses are marine angiosperms from the Families Potamagetonaceae and
Hydrocharitaceae (Chapter 1). These are by origin land plants that developed both aerial …

Although environmental requirements of seagrasses have been studied for years, reliable
metrics for predicting their response to current or future conditions remain elusive. Eelgrass …

Abstract Since Susan Williams and I started our scientific careers in the mid-1970s, seagrass
science has been transformed from a largely descriptive field to an increasingly quantitative …

Las lagunas costeras son un rasgo fisiográfico muy importante de las costas de la
Península de Yucatán (SE, México), donde se desarrollan diferentes actividades …

The effects of a commercial sunscreen mixture on the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia
oceanica were investigated, evaluating its response in physiological processes and …

In this study, I evaluate the variability in light absorption efficiency of Thalassia testudinum
leaves and the magnitude of the package effect affecting seagrass leaves. The large …
