Effects of burial and erosion on the seagrass Zostera noltii (2007, methodology): “This time of year was chosen to conduct the experiment because this period corresponds to the species higher growth rate (Peralta et al., 2005).”
Consequences of shoot density and stiffness for ecosystem engineering by benthic macrophytes in flow dominated areas: a hydrodynamic flume study (2008, background): “…et al: Effects of benthic macrophyte biomechanics on hydrodynamics very useful for explaining differences in attenuation of current velocity for species that typically develop high density populations, like temperate small seagrasses such as Zostera noltii (Brun et al. 2003, Peralta et al. 2005).”
Waves and high nutrient loads jointly decrease survival and separately affect morphological and biomechanical properties in the seagrass Zostera noltii (2012, background): “…the present study is to assess in an aquarium experiment the interactive effects of wave forces and nutrient enrichment on the survival, morphodynamical, and biomechanical properties of seagrass Zostera noltii, a fast-growing species with an extensive morphological plasticity (Peralta et al. 2005).”
Interaction between hydrodynamics and seagrass canopy structure: Spatially explicit effects on ammonium uptake rates (2008, background): “Hydrodynamic conditions can affect the growth and morphometry of seagrass plants, either directly or indirectly (Fonseca and Kenworthy 1987; Schanz and Asmus 2003; Peralta et al. 2005).”
Direct effects of current velocity on the growth, morphometry and architecture of seagrasses: a case study on Zostera noltii (2006, methodology): “Moreover, intensive events of shoot recruitment in Zostera noltii have been previously associated with important decreases in PI, which is considered as an indicator of highly favorable growth conditions (Vermaat & Verhagen 1996, Peralta et al. 2005).”
