Coastal blue carbon ecosystems are crucial to mitigating global warming. To accurately calculate the blue carbon stock, the existing amount of each species in seaweed and seagrass (SWSG) beds must be estimated to calculate the amount of CO2 absorbed by e...

In the present work, we assessed the contents of rare earth elements (REEs), including yttrium and scandium, in rhizomes and leaves of the widespread seagrass Zostera noltei Hornemann 1832 and in the nearby sediments from the Black Sea coast. The total R...

The dwarf eelgrass Zostera noltei Hornemann (Z. noltei) is the most dominant seagrass in semi-enclosed coastal systems of the Atlantic coast of Morocco. The species is experiencing a worldwide decline and monitoring the extent of its meadows would be a u...

Seagrass meadows are vulnerable to fine sediment (mud) pollution, with impacts usually attributed to reduction in submerged light. Here we tested two non-exclusive hypotheses, that mud particles (<63 µm) impact seagrasses through both (1) the light clima...

The invasive mussel Arcuatula senhousia has successfully colonized shallow soft sediments worldwide. This filter feeding mussel modifies sedimentary habitats while forming dense populations and efficiently contributes to nutrient cycling. In the present ...

The development of new antifouling methods gives increasing attention to biomimicry, which could provide nontoxic or less toxic solutions for the deterrence of unwanted settlers. Natural mechanisms against fouling are often highly dynamic and future appl...

A new method for multibeam echosounder (MBES) data analysis is presented with the aim of improving habitat mapping, especially when considering submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV). MBES data were acquired with 400 kHz in 1?8 m water depth with a spatial r...
