Seagrass community data derived from field surveys at Hera Bay, Timor-Leste, ...

The area of interest of approximately 590 ha was surveyed by boat and by foot at low tide between 30th October 2022 and 8th March 2023, resulting in 275 spot-checks. For the...

Natural abundance of stable isotopes of macrophytes of NW Spain

The values of natural abundance of stable isotopes were measured in 22 species of macrophytes (18 macroalgae and 4 vascular plants) collected from the intertidal domain in NW...

Seawater carbonate chemistry and germination of eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) ...

Our study investigated the combined effects of ocean acidification and P. gemini infection on germination of eelgrass seeds. We conducted a two-level factorial experiment...

Light availability and temperature, not increased CO2, will structure future ...

We evaluated the photosynthetic performance of Posidonia oceanica during short-term laboratory exposures to ambient and elevated temperatures (24-25 °C and 29-30 °C) warming and...

Responses of three tropical seagrass species to CO2 enrichment

Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide leads to ocean acidification and carbon dioxide (CO2) enrichment of seawater. Given the important ecological functions of seagrass meadows,...

Seawater carbonate chemistry, structural and chemical characteristics of the ...

Seagrasses commonly display carbon-limited photosynthetic rates. Thus, increases in atmospheric pCO2, and consequentially oceanic CO2(aq) concentrations, may prove beneficial....

Increased temperature reduces the positive effect of sulfide-detoxification m...

Seagrass meadows form essential ecological components in coastal zones but are rapidly declining worldwide due to anthropogenic impacts, including eutrophication and climate...

Diel oxygen production and uptake by Posidonia oceanica meadows at Elba, Italy

Aquatic eddy covariance oxygen flux was determined over two seagrass (Posidonia oceanica) meadows at Elba, Italy. The first meadow (open-water) was located 300 m from the...

Meiofauna of the Ligurian Sea

The hypothesis that, temporal variation in nematode abundance, community composition and trophic structure is coupled with changes in the quantity and quality of their potential...

Annual wrack biomass of the northern Portugal sandy beaches

Wrack accumulations are a source of nutrients on sandy beaches and host invertebrate species, increasing local biodiversity. The distribution of these important accumulations...

Seagrasses of the Crimean coastal zone (Black Sea, 1960-2009)

The main aim of the dataset is preparing the available data by diversity and distribution of the Black Sea seagrasses, which were collected the scientists from IBSS around...

Global database of key seagrass structure, biomass and production variables

Seagrass meadows provide valuable socio-ecological ecosystem services, including a key role in climate change mitigation and adaption. Understanding the natural history of...

Data set on restoration projects of coastal marine habitats reported worldwide

Data set on restoration projects of coastal marina habitats reported worldwide. The data set includes projects on mangroves, seagrass, saltmarshes, oyster reefs and tropical...
