Biogeomorphic wetlands cover 1% of Earth's surface but store 20% of ecosystem organic
carbon. This disproportional share is fueled by high carbon sequestration rates and effective …

There is growing concern over tip** points arising in ecosystems because of the crossing
of environmental thresholds. Tip** points lead to abrupt and possibly irreversible shifts …

Seagrasses, flowering marine plants that form underwater meadows, play a significant
global role in supporting food security, mitigating climate change and supporting …

Seagrasses are remarkable plants that have adapted to live in a marine environment. They
form extensive meadows found globally that bioengineer their local environments and …

Restoration is becoming a vital tool to counteract coastal ecosystem degradation. Modifying
transplant designs of habitat-forming organisms from dispersed to clumped can amplify …

The spatial extent of seagrass is poorly mapped, and knowledge of historical loss is limited.
Here, we collated empirical and qualitative data using systematic review methods to provide …

Seagrasses provide multiple ecosystem services including nursery habitat, improved water
quality, coastal protection, and carbon sequestration. However, seagrasses are in crisis as …

Seagrass ecosystems are inherently dynamic, responding to environmental change across
a range of scales. Habitat requirements of seagrass are well defined, but less is known …

Vegetated marine and freshwater habitats are being increasingly lost around the world.
Habitat restoration is a critical step for conserving these valuable habitats, but new …

Habitat loss is accelerating a global extinction crisis. Conservation requires understanding
links between species and habitats. Emerging research is revealing important associations …
