Seasonal and small-scale spatial variability of herbivory pressure on the temperate seagrass Posidonia oceanica (2005, background): “In any case, cages only remained under water for 30 d, so we did not expect to find any significant effects of cages on the plant parameters (e.g. Ruiz & Romero 2001, Tomas et al. 2005).”
Morphological, growth and meadow characteristics of the seagrass Posidonia sinuosa along a depth-related gradient of light availability (2007, background): “…is often observed in response to light deprivation (Bay 1984, Lee & Dunton 1997, Longstaff & Dennison 1999, Ruiz & Romero 2001) when the plant’s carbon budget becomes imbalanced due to reduced photosynthetic carbon fixation and often requiring a draw-down on carbon reserves (Ruiz & Romero 2001).”
Effects of herbivores on a Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadow: importance of epiphytes (2005, background): “Epiphytes are highly sensitive to light reduction (Ruiz & Romero 2001) and thus, if a caging effect had occurred, epiphytes would probably have been the most affected.”
Effects of salinity on leaf growth and survival of the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile (2005, background): “oceanica has also shown low tolerance to changes in other environmental factors, such as light reduction (Ruiz and Romero, 2001) or high sedimentation rates (Manzanera et al.”
Impact of light limitation on seagrasses (2007, background): “Leaf morphology changes to optimise photosynthesis according to the ambient light climate of the meadow (Ruiz and Romero, 2001).”
Recovery of deep Posidonia oceanica meadows degraded by trawling (2005, unknown): “This, in turn, reduces light availability for plant photosynthesis either directly (Ruiz and Romero, 2001) or indirectly, such as through the enhancement of epiphyte growth on leaves (Sand Jensen, 1977; Silverstein et al.”
Effects of experimental reduction of light and nutrient enrichments (N and P) on seagrasses: a review (2008, background): “The most frequently observed morphological responses have been a decrease in biomass (Neverauska, 1988; Abal et al., 1994; Burke et al., 1996; Lee and Dunton, 1997; Bach et al., 1998; Longstaff and Dennison, 1999; Ruiz and Romero, 2001b; Holmer and Laursen, 2002), a reduction in growth (Neverauska, ”
Dynamics of Seagrass Stability and Change (2007, background): “Deterioration of water quality leads to seagrass mortality through light limitation and unbalanced plant carbon budgets (e.g. Gordon et al., 1994; Ruiz and Romero, 2001).”
