• Oxygen consumption in Mediterranean octocorals under different temperatures (2010, background): “It is predominantly present on horizontal substrata (both hard and detritic) and it is a common species in pre-coralligenous assemblages (Linares et al., 2008).”
• An Overview of the Animal Forests of the World (2017, background): “In temperate seas, gorgonians, sponges, and bryozoans may form dense forests in shallow coastal areas (Linares et al. 2008), as well as on the continental shelf and slope (Boudouresque et al. this volume; Gori et al. this volume).”
• Spatial distribution patterns of the gorgonians Eunicella singularis, Paramuricea clavata, and Leptogorgia sarmentosa (Cape of Creus, Northwestern Mediterranean Sea) (2011, background): “The observed large number of young E. singularis colonies seems to indicate a high survival of its recruits (Linares et al. 2008a) and continuous recruitment over time (Ribes et al. 2007; Linares et al. 2008a).”
• Paramuricea clavata (Anthozoa, Octocorallia) loss in the Marine Protected Area of Tavolara (Sardinia, Italy) due to a mass mortality event (2011, methodology): “This trend was reported also in other monitoring studies on gorgonian mortality (Cerrano et al. 2005; Cupido et al. 2008, 2009; Linares et al. 2008a,b,c).”
• Size and spatial structure in deep versus shallow populations of the Mediterranean gorgonian Eunicella singularis (Cap de Creus, northwestern Mediterranean Sea) (2011, background): “gation of shallow populations of this gorgonian species (Linares et al. 2008).”
