There is growing concern over climate models that project significant changes in the oceans,
with consequences on marine biodiversity and human well-being. However, marine and …

Coastal oceans are particularly affected by rapid and extreme environmental changes with
dramatic consequences for the entire ecosystem. Seagrasses are key ecosystem …

Ocean and coastal ecosystems support life on Earth and many aspects of human well-being.
Covering two-thirds of the planet, the ocean hosts vast biodiversity and modulates the global …

The response of Posidonia oceanica meadows to global warming of the Eastern
Mediterranean Sea, where the increase in sea surface temperature (SST) is particularly …

Global (eg climate change) and local factors (eg nutrient enrichment) act together in nature
strongly hammering coastal ecosystems, where seagrasses play a critical ecological role …

Seagrass beds inhabit highly heterogeneous temperature regimes that characterize the
marine nearshore. Temperature directly influences seagrasses and also provides indirect …

Coastal ecosystems, such as seagrasses, are subjected to local (eg eutrophication) and
global (eg warming) stressors. While the separate effects of warming and eutrophication on …

We investigated temperature effects on eelgrass Zostera marina L. growing close to its
southern distribution limit along the eastern coast of North America in Virginia, USA. We …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are increasing in frequency and intensity as part of climate
change, yet their impact on seagrass is poorly known. The present work evaluated the …

Aquatic species are increasingly confronted with environmental stressors because of climate
change. Although molecular technologies have advanced our understanding of how …
