Evolutionary ecology of social and sexual systems : crustaceans as model organisms (2007, background): “In estuaries especially, water quality is often compromised by heavy influx of nutrients, organic matter, and chemical contaminants (Kennish 2002).”
Ecophysiological responses of juvenile summer and winter flounder to hypoxia: experimental and modeling analyses of effects on estuarine nursery quality (2006, background): “…effects of hypoxia are manifested through reduced feeding and growth rates (Chabot & Dutil 1999, Pichavant et al. 2001, McNatt & Rice 2004), altered behavior (Kramer 1987, Wannamaker & Rice 2000, Tyler 2004), and/or habitat compression (Eby & Crowder 2002, Tyler 2004, Bell & Eggleston 2005).”
Ecological value of coastal habitats for commercially and ecologically important species (2014, background): “…global change, including rising temperature and sea levels, changes in the magnitude of nutrient and sediment run-off, overfishing, dredging, and sand mining, and habitat loss, present increased threats to coastal habitats worldwide (Kennesh, 2002; Kemp et al., 2005; Lotze et al., 2006).”
Assessing connectivity of estuarine fishes based on stable isotope ratio analysis (2005, background): “This is particularly critical considering that the connectivity of estuarine fishes may be threatened due to the extensive habitat loss and degradation of that has plagued estuaries during the last decades (Chambers, 1992; Kennish, 2002).”
Fisheries, food security, climate change, and biodiversity: characteristics of the sector and perspectives on emerging issues (2011, background): “In addition, currently half the world population lives within 60 km of the ocean, a proportion projected to increase to more than 60% by 2020 (Kennish, 2002; UNEP, 2007).”
Vulnerability of marine biodiversity to ocean acidification: A meta-analysis (2010, background): “Science and society should not forget other major threats to marine biodiversity like overfishing, habitat destruction, increased nutrient inputs and associated oxygen depletion and warming (Dobson et al., 2006; Jackson et al., 2001; Kennish, 2002; Thomas et al., 2004; Valiela, 2006).”
Detecting range shifts among Australian fishes in response to climate change (2011, background): “Sea-level rise is likely to have strong indirect effects on fish production through its effects on key estuarine fish habitats, namely mangroves, seagrass and saltmarsh (Kennish 2002; Bond and Lake 2005).”
Secondary production as a tool for better understanding of aquatic ecosystems (2012, background): “…impact 274 assessments 275 Global ecological changes are occurring at a very rapid rate and over a large scale due to 276 multiple stressors affecting aquatic ecosystems (e.g. eutrophication, pollution, habitat loss, 277 climate change, invasive species introductions, Kennish 2002; Paerl 2006).”
Seasonal and interannual effects of hypoxia on fish habitat quality in central Lake Erie (2011, background): “ing human population densities (Kennish, 2002) and anticipated temperature and precipitation increases that will exacerbate water column stratification (Wu, 2002; Diaz & Rosenberg, 2008).”
Pollution reduces native diversity and increases invader dominance in marine hard‐substrate communities (2007, background): “Anthropogenic pollution has been demonstrated to affect the diversity of organisms in many marine systems (Kennish, 2002; Hooper et al., 2005), with metal pollution in particular being shown to greatly decrease the diversity of sessile and benthic fauna (Rygg, 1985a,b; Moran & Grant, 1989; Medina et”
Sydney Harbour: a review of anthropogenic impacts on the biodiversity and ecosystem function of one of the world’s largest natural harbours (2015, background): “These impacts are likely to become more severe and widespread in the coming decades as populations and consumption rates increase and climate change accelerates (e.g. Kennish 2002; Lotze et al. 2006; Clark et al. 2015).”
Experimental nutrient enrichment causes complex changes in seagrass, microalgae, and macroalgae community structure in Florida Bay (2005, background): “422 2005 Estuarine Research Federation Introduction Increased nutrient input as a consequence of human land use can cause changes in species composition and primary productivity in terrestrial and aquatic habitats (Borum and Sand-Jensen 1996; Smith et al. 1999; Kennish 2002).”
