• Scientists’ warning to humanity: microorganisms and climate change (2019, unknown): “Human activity, including anthropogenic climate change, has reduced these habitats over the past 50 years by 25–50%, and the abundance of marine predators has dropped by up to 90% 85–87 .”
• Herbivory on freshwater and marine macrophytes: A review and perspective (2016, background): “Recent studies are therefore stressing that it is critical to maintain intact predator populations that control large herbivore densities to prevent grazer aggregation, protect carbon stocks and avoid seagrass meadow collapse (Atwood et al., 2015).”
