Shift in seagrass food web structure over decades is linked to overfishing (2012, background): “These experiments showed that an increased level of nutrients in concert with added intermediate predators resulted in a de creased abundance of grazers, in - creased bloom of filamentous algae and decreased growth of seagrass (Moksnes et al. 2008, Baden et al. 2010).”
Macrophytes as habitat for fauna (2009, unknown): “On the Swedish Skagerrak coast, Moksnes et al. (2008) found that reduced grazing by mesograzers on ephemeral algae increased the effects of eutrophication in seagrass beds.”
Infauna fromZostera marina L. meadows in Norway. Differences in vegetated and unvegetated areas (2010, background): “detrivores, or this food source might be directly consumed by mesoherbivores (Moksnes et al. 2008).”
Large-scale shift from sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima) to ephemeral algae along the south and west coast of Norway (2012, background): “In Swedish waters, Moksnes et al. (2008) and Eriksson et al. (2009) have linked overgrown macrophyte beds to cascade responses of overfishing of predatory fish, such as cod.”
Trophic interactions in Zostera marina beds along the Swedish coast (2008, background): “Moksnes et al. (2008) observed that G. locusta can reach a large size and very high biomass in the absence of local predators, and hence that species can control the growth of filamentous green algae, even during periods of nutrient enrichment.”
