Eutrophication in shallow coastal bays and lagoons: the role of plants in the coastal filter (2007, background): “…appears that the net effect of dense macroalgal mats is to move the zone of denitrification from the sediments up into the oxic–anoxic interface in the mat, but not to influence the rates significantly compared to ‘bare’ sediments with benthic microalgae (Krause-Jensen et al. 1999, Dalsgaard 2003).”
Biogeochemical responses to mass coral spawning at the Great Barrier Reef: Effects on respiration and primary production (2008, background): “Importance of advective porewater transport—Despite high nutrient and DIC levels in sediments, these compounds may become limiting in dense microphytobenthic communities due to diffusion limitations (Glud et al. 1992; Dalsgaard 2003).”
Temperature effects on respiration and photosynthesis in three diatom-dominated benthic communities (2004, methodology): “Studies from the Danish and Dutch Wadden Seas, applying other techniques, have shown lower-end mesophile temperature responses of gross photosynthesis, with Topt of 15 to 30°C (Colijn & van Buurt 1975, Rasmussen et al. 1983, Blanchard et al. 1996).”
