• The Invasive Species Challenge in Estuarine and Coastal Environments: Marrying Management and Science (2008, background): “…or Weedy Caulerpa taxifolia (seaweed) Overgrows seagrasses Ceccherelli and Cinelli 1997 Caulerpa racemosa (seaweed) Overgrows seagrasses Ceccherelli and Campo 2002 Watersipora subtorquata (bryozoan) Fouls ship hulls and marinas Floerl et al. 2004 Predator Carcinus maenas (green crab)…”
• A framework to study the context-dependent impacts of marine invasions (2011, background): “For example, the impact of invasive species in marine systems can vary at small spatial scales (Ceccherelli and Campo, 2002; Thomsen and McGlathery, 2006), regional scales (Bulleri et al., 2010; Thomsen et al., 2010), between seasons (Scheibling and Gagnon, 2006; Thomsen et al., 2006a, 2006b;…”
• Introduced Macroalgae – a Growing Concern (2006, background): “Overgrowth by C. racemosa changed macroalgal community composition and seagrass shoot density (Piazzi et al., 2001b; Ceccherelli and Campo, 2002).”
• Phytotoxic activity of caulerpenyne from the Mediterranean invasive variety of Caulerpa racemosa: a potential allelochemical (2007, background): “…under dense canopies of Cymodocea nodosa (Ucria) Ascherson (Raniello et al. 2004), the presence of the alga was reported by Ceccherelli et al. (2000) and Ceccherelli and Campo (2002) to induce a stress in the physiology of C. nodosa, as well as in another seagrass typical of the Mediterranean…”
• A Global Review of the Distribution, Taxonomy, and Impacts of Introduced Seaweeds (2007, background): “Of the seagrasses studied in the Mediterranean, only continuous or dense patches of Posidonia oceanica, one of the largest and longest-lived seagrass species, can effectively resist introduced Caulerpa spp. (Ceccherelli & Campo 2002, Ceccherelli & Cinelli 1999a, Ceccherelli et al. 2000).”
• Ecological impacts of invading seaweeds: a meta‐analysis of their effects at different trophic levels (2015, background): “…of studies), did not show significant effects of invading seaweeds on seagrass density, suggesting a trade-off between negative (e.g. competition for light availability, Drouin et al., 2012) and positive (e.g. enhanced reproductive shoot density; Ceccherelli & Campo, 2002) effects of invaders.”
• Deterioration of Sediment Quality in Seagrass Meadows (Posidonia oceanica) Invaded by Macroalgae (Caulerpa sp.) (2009, background): “For instance, C. racemosa negatively affected seagrass growth, whereas C. taxifolia had no measurable impact ( Ceccherelli and Campo 2002; Ceccherelli and Sechi 2002; Piazzi et al. 2005; Piazzi and Ceccherelli 2006), and the mechanisms leading to the displacement ofP.”
