Marine systems are highly connected; therefore, we expect that changes in the intertidal will alter functions of adjacent subtidal seagrass meadows. We surveyed seagrass meadows adjacent to mangroves, salt marshes, and a mixture of the two and asked, do changes in intertidal plant composition ...
not to mention the need to use water changes for nitrate control in marine aquariums might be a good short term method to get a marine aquarium under control, but long term, this indicates an unhealthy marine aquarium (although using a more economical salt mix such as Coralife, Instant Ocean...
Salt stress is one of the environmental constraints that restrict plant distribution, growth and yield in many parts of the world. Increased world population surely elevates food demands all over the globe, which anticipates to add a great challenge to humanity. These concerns have necessitated the...
However, factors affecting the distribution of microplastics, such as plants, have not been sufficiently studied. We investigated the effect of different plant species on the distribution of sediment microplastics in two Nature Reserves in South China, viz. Futian Mangrove and Mai Po Mangrove. In ...
mangrovesea breezetideCoastal mangrove wetlands experience unique land-sea interaction including periodic tidal and sea breeze activity; however, their impacts on mangrove net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of carbon dioxide have not been well investigated. In this regard, continuous eddy covariance and ...
All data used, including ocean features and biogeographic province distribution data, were obtained from publicly accessible sources on the Internet. 2.1.1. Surveyed Nearshore, Offshore, and Deep-Sea Habitats Nearshore coral reefs, mangroves, salt marshes, kelp beds, and seagrass meadows, together ...
