Seagrass landscapes and their effects on associated fauna: a review
Seagrasses comprise some of the most heterogeneous landscape structures of shallow-
water estuarine/marine ecosystems in the world. However, while knowledge at the …

Review of nekton patterns and ecological processes in seagrass landscapes
RM Connolly, JS Hindell - Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2006 - Elsevier
We reviewed seagrass landscape studies on nekton (fish and larger mobile crustaceans) to
summarise:(1) patterns of nekton abundance in relation to patch attributes; and (2) models …

Zoobenthic community establishment and habitat complexity the importance of seagrass shoot-density, morphology and physical disturbance for faunal recruitment
Seagrass meadows are among the most diverse coastal ecosystems in the Baltic Sea. There

Faunal response to fragmentation in seagrass habitats: implications for seagrass conservation
SS Bell, RA Brooks, BD Robbins, MS Fonseca… - Biological …, 2001 - Elsevier

A cross-scale trophic cascade from large predatory fish to algae in coastal ecosystems
Trophic cascades occur in many ecosystems, but the factors regulating them are still elusive.
We suggest that an overlooked factor is that trophic interactions (TIs) are often scale …
