Sediment‐mediated suppression of herbivory on coral reefs: Decreasing resilience to rising sea‐levels and climate change? (2008, background): “For coral reefs, this assumption is based largely on inferential data (Airoldi 2003), although the highest herbivorous and detritivorous fish densities are found on the reef crest, where sediment loads are lowest (Purcell and Bellwood 2001; Wilson et al. 2003; Fox and Bellwood 2007).”
Integrating ecology with biogeography using landscape characteristics: a case study of subtidal habitat across continental Australia (2008, background): “These algae often inhibit the recruitment of kelp (for a review, see Airoldi, 2003), slow the rate of recovery of kelp (Kennelly, 1987a), and allow alternative species to occupy space.”
Sediment on rocky intertidal reefs: Effects on early post-settlement stages of habitat-forming seaweeds (2006, background): “Fucoid and laminarian algae can be particularly vulnerable in their microscopic stages during settlement and early development (Amsler et al., 1992; Airoldi, 2003).”
Anthropogenic structures and the infiltration of natural benthos by invasive ascidians (2012, background): “2007), light availability (Glasby 1999b; Blockley & Chapman 2006), sedimentation (Airoldi 2003), exposure (Bulleri & Airoldi 2005), propagule supply (Svane & Young 1989; Shanks 2009), competition (Stachowicz & Byrnes 2006), and predation (Osman & Whitlatch 1995a, 2004).”
Large-scale shift from sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima) to ephemeral algae along the south and west coast of Norway (2012, background): “…to particle pollution and sediment load on rocky bottom habitat is loss of large forest building species (Seapy & Littler 1982; Vogt & Schramm 1991; Airoldi 1998, 2003; Schiel et al. 2006), but the sediment loads observed in our study are not of a magnitude that were found lethal for adult plants…”
Effects of accumulations of sediments and drift algae on recruitment of sessile organisms associated with oyster reefs (2006, background): “Thus, eutrophication that enhances drift algae accumu- lation (Raffaelli et al., 1998), and urban development and changed land-use practices that enhance sedimentation (Airoldi, 2003), are likely to have large-scale negative effects on oyster reefs and associated biota.”
The role of kelp species as biogenic habitat formers in coastal marine ecosystems (2017, background): “, 2012; Leichter and Witman, 1997) and increased sedimentation has been shown to 655 have a negative impact on the recruitment and survival of sessile invertebrates (Airoldi, 2003; Irving 656 and Connell, 2002).”
Quantifying effects of pollution on biodiversity: a case study of highly diverse molluscan assemblages in the Mediterranean (2005, background): “…factors often covarying with sediments (e.g., hydrody- namics, salinity, organic enrichment, and associated oxygen demands), can act to modify the chemical and physical features of the environment, influencing patterns of abundance and species distribution within assemblages (Airoldi 2003).”
Epibiota on vertical and on horizontal surfaces on natural reefs and on artificial structures (2004, background): “Sedimentation is known to a¡ect algae (Airoldi, 2003), but there appear to be few manipulative ¢eld studies on the e¡ects of sedimentation on invertebrates.”
Benthic response to chronic natural physical disturbance by glacial sedimentation in an Arctic fjord (2005, background): “Increased sediment loads to coastal waters may also result from such human activities as deforestation, dredging, industrial and domestic discharges, construction activities and aquaculture (Airoldi 2003) and can be regarded as one of the major threats to marine biodiversity (Thrush et al. 2004).”
Assembly and maintenance of subtidal habitat heterogeneity: synergistic effects of light penetration and sedimentation (2005, background): “Enhanced coastal sedimentation may play a key role in such changes to habitat on human-dominated coast (Airoldi 2003).”
The Gray Zone: Relationships between habitat loss and marine diversity and their applications in conservation (2008, background): “This habitat shift seems to be favoured under conditions of decreased water quality and/or enhanced sediment loads (Airoldi, 1998; Airoldi, 2003; Benedetti-Cecchi et al., 2001; Irving and Connell, 2002; Gorgula and Connell, 2004; Balata et al., 2007b).”
Loss of fucoid algae along a gradient of urbanisation, and structure of benthic assemblages (2008, background): “…1993, Benedetti-Cecchi et al. 2001, Soltan et al. 2001), increase in water turbidity and sedimentation (Vogt & Schramm 1991, Eriksson et al. 2002, Airoldi 2003, Schiel et al. 2006), overgrazing (Jenkins et al. 1999a,b, Benedetti-Cecchi et al. 2000, Steneck et al. 2002, Thibaut et al. 2005, Hereu…”
Factors affecting yield and gelling properties of agar (2016, background): “Sedimentation was found to be an important factor that affects marine aquaculture and seaweed exploitation, as it reduces underwater irradiance and gaseous exchange by covering the seaweeds (Chapman and Fletcher 2002; Airoldi 2003), which subsequently decreases photosynthesis and produces lower agar”
