Reviews and syntheses: Calculating the global contribution of coralline algae to total carbon burial (2015, background): “The calcium carbonate skeleton of coralline algae prevents them from breaking down quickly compared to fleshy algae (Borowitzka, 1982; Wilson, 2004).”
Habitat structure and biological characteristics of a maerl bed off the northeastern coast of the Maltese Islands (central Mediterranean) (2009, unknown): “2004), provided there is sufficient water motion to prevent rhodolith burial (Marrack 1999; Wilson et al. 2004).”
Community structure and food web based on stable isotopes (δ15N and δ13C) analysis of a North Eastern Atlantic maerl bed (2006, background): “Previous investigations have shown Europeanmaerl to be ecologically fragile due to growth rates of about 1 mm year (Wilson et al., 2004), but also because they support a highly diverse and specific fauna and flora (BIOMAERLTeam, 1999; Grall and Hall Spencer, 2003).”
Effect of temperature on photosynthesis, growth and calcification rates of the free-living coralline alga Lithophyllum margaritae (2007, background): “Por otro lado, el rendimiento cuántico óptimo del fotosistema II (FSII) usando fluorometría PAM en otra especie del Atlántico Norte no mostró ningún efecto de temperatura “estacional” al comparar Phymatolithon calcareum a 9ºC y 17ºC (Wilson et al. 2004).”
Community metabolism in temperate maerl beds: I. carbon and carbonate fluxes (2007, unknown): “Maerl communities are one of the most diverse marine ecosystems (Hall-Spencer et al. 2003, Wilson et al. 2004).”
Calcified macroalgae - critical to coastal ecosystems and vulnerable to change: a review (2009, background): “7 mm y−1 have been recorded) (Bohm et al. 1978; Payri 1997; Blake and Maggs 2003; Bosence and Wilson 2003; Wilson et al. 2004; Frantz et al. 2005).”
Impact of fish farms on maerl beds in strongly tidal areas (2006, background): “…provides legislative protection to maerl, which is now a key habitat within a number of UK Special Areas of Conservation and subject to a UK Habitat Action Plan that aims to maintain the extent, variety and quality of maerl beds and associated seaweed and animal communities (Wilson et al. 2004).”
