Seagrasses in an era of ocean warming: a review
Seagrasses are valuable sources of food and habitat for marine life and are one of Earth's
most efficient carbon sinks. However, they are facing a global decline due to ocean warming …

Seasonality of methane and carbon dioxide emissions in tropical seagrass and unvegetated ecosystems
Seagrass ecosystems are important carbon dioxide sinks that can sequester carbon for
centuries as organic matter in sediment. They are also a major source of methane, a potent …

Species-specific trait responses of three tropical seagrasses to multiple stressors: the case of increasing temperature and nutrient enrichment
Seagrass meadows are declining globally. The decrease of seagrass area is influenced by
the simultaneous occurrence of many factors at the local and global scale, including nutrient …

Warming enhances carbon dioxide and methane fluxes from Red Sea seagrass (Halophila stipulacea) sediments
Seagrass meadows are autotrophic ecosystems acting as carbon sinks, but they have also
been shown to be sources of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4). Seagrasses can …

Photo-physiology and morphology reveal divergent warming responses in northern and southern hemisphere seagrasses
A better understanding of species and population responses to thermal stress is critical to
predict changes in their distribution under warming scenarios. Seagrasses are a unique …
