A framework for the resilience of seagrass ecosystems
Seagrass ecosystems represent a global marine resource that is declining across its range.
To halt degradation and promote recovery over large scales, management requires a radical …

Habitat characteristics provide insights of carbon storage in seagrass meadows
Seagrass meadows provide multiple ecosystem services, yet they are among the most
threatened ecosystems on earth. Because of their role as carbon sinks, protection and …

Variability in the carbon storage of seagrass habitats and its implications for global estimates of blue carbon ecosystem service
The recent focus on carbon trading has intensified interest in 'Blue Carbon'–carbon

Fine sediment and particulate organic matter: A review and case study on ridge-to-reef transport, transformations, fates, and impacts on marine ecosystems
Studies documenting the effects of land-derived suspended particulate matter (SPM, ie,
particulate organic matter and mineral sediment) on marine ecosystems are typically …

Seagrass ecosystem trajectory depends on the relative timescales of resistance, recovery and disturbance
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 …

Response of seagrass indicators to shifts in environmental stressors: a global review and management synthesis
Although seagrass-based indicators are widely used to assess coastal ecosystem status,
there is little universality in their application. Matching the plethora of available indicators to …

Influence of water depth on the carbon sequestration capacity of seagrasses
The actual estimates of carbon stocks beneath seagrass meadows worldwide are derived
from few data, resulting in a tendency to generalize global carbon stocks from a very limited …
