Rapid direct and indirect effects of a single nutrient pulse in a seaweed-epiphyte-grazer system (2000, background): “These results suggest that a single nutrient pulse can have pronounced direct and indirect effects on macroalgae, epiphytes and grazers during the spring epiphyte bloom when epiphyte loads on Fucus in the Western Baltic typically reach their annual maximum (Lotze et al. 2000).”
Strong bottom‐up and top‐down control of early life stages of macroalgae (2001, background): “Our experimental run in the Baltic was performed during the main recruitment period of the three dominant algal species, which occurred from mid-May to mid-June in 1998 (Worm et al. 1999; Lotze et al. 1999, 2000).”
Effects of filamentous algae and deposited matter on the survival of Fucus vesiculosus L. germlings in the Baltic Sea (2004, background): “The phenomenon is spread from Kiel Bay (Lotze et al. 2000) to the archipelagos of southern Finland (Vahteri et al.”
Ecological consequences of biological invasions: three invertebrate case studies in the north-eastern Baltic Sea (2006, background): “intestinalis (Lotze et al. 2000) as the spore germination and growth of the species may be reduced up to 99% by mesograzers (Lotze et al.”
Coral–macroalgal phase shifts or reef resilience: links with diversity and functional roles of herbivorous fishes on the Great Barrier Reef (2010, background): “Blooms of L. variegata may be prevented primarily by direct grazing on early life stages (Lotze et al. 2000; DiazPulido and McCook 2003) as well as by incidental dislodgement of fragile algal recruits by general herbivore activity.”
NUTRIENT ENHANCEMENT INCREASES PERFORMANCE OF A MARINE HERBIVORE VIA QUALITY OF ITS FOOD ALGA (2002, background): “Recent studies on the regulation of marine algal assemblages have found that mesograzers may strongly modify the benthic community structure by selective grazing and by suppressing macroalgal blooms (Duffy and Hay 2000, Lotze et al. 2000, Worm et al. 2000).”
Crustose coralline algae can suppress macroalgal growth and recruitment on Hawaiian coral reefs (2011, unknown): “Observations from marine systems other than coral reefs show that the earliest life stages of macroalgae have greater sensitivity and different reactivity towards factors such as temperature, light, herbivory, and nutrients than adult stages (Lotze 1998, Lotze et al. 1999, 2000).”
Somatic cells serve as a potential propagule bank of Enteromorpha prolifera forming a green tide in the Yellow Sea, China (2010, background): “pertinent information is still far from being understood ( Lotze et al. 1999, 2000; Worm et al. 2001; Carney and Edwards 2006).”
Sediment destabilizing and stabilizing bio-engineers on tidal flats: cascading effects of experimental exclusion (2009, background): “The combination of variable environmental conditions and a variable supply of colonisers may account for conditional outcome of benthic engineering in time and space (i.e. Menge and Sutherland 1987; Lotze et al. 2000; Norkko et al. 2006).”
Complex interactions of climatic and ecological controls on macroalgal recruitment (2002, background): “This phenomenon has been linked to an unbalance between increasing nutrient supply and decreasing herbivore control caused by human activities (Valiela et al. 1997; Worm et al. 1999, 2000; Lotze et al. 2000).”
Ecophysiological traits explain species dominance patterns in macroalgal blooms (2000, methodology): “…systems because (1) high winter concentrations in our system remain until March (Schramm et al. 1996), when annual algal growth is initiated (Lotze et al. 1999, 2000); (2) there is frequent wind-driven transport of nutrient-rich water from the aData were fitted to the Michaelis–Menten…”
