Modeling the interaction between flow and highly flexible aquatic vegetation (2010, background): “, Peralta et al. [2008]; see their article for a picture).”
Flow‐induced reconfiguration of buoyant and flexible aquatic vegetation (2011, background): “Previous studies show that the morphology of aquatic vegetation can change in response to the local hydrodynamic environment (Puijalon et al. 2005; Peralta et al. 2006; Stewart 2006), reflecting the feedbacks between flow, plant posture, and the biological processes described above.”
Effects of seagrasses and algae of the Caulerpa family on hydrodynamics and particle-trapping rates (2010, background): “Hence, stiffness–flexibility appears to have a strong influence on the interaction of hydrodynamics with aquatic plants (Peralta et al. 2008).”
Organism traits determine the strength of scale-dependent bio-geomorphic feedbacks: A flume study on three intertidal plant species (2013, unknown): “These factors might, however, be expected to be highly important, as organism traits are known to affect a species ecosystem engineering capacity (Bouma et al., 2005a; Peralta et al., 2008; Bouma et al., 2010).”
