Radical changes in the Wadden Sea fauna and flora over the last 2,000 years (2005, background): “…trends have been observed in the Dutch Wadden Sea since the 1970s, and may be explained by enhanced food supply due to eutrophication, by trawling that indirectly favours polychaetes which recover quickly, or by the decline in predators (Reise et al. 1989; Essink et al. 1998; Beukema et al. 2002).”
Potential impact of temperature change on epibenthic predator–bivalve prey interactions in temperate estuaries (2007, background): “For instance, on the one hand, growth in bivalves in the Wadden Sea appears to be food limited (Hummel, 1985; Kamermans et al., 1992; Kamermans, 1993; Beukema et al., 2002; Cardoso et al., 2006), while for some predators (flatfishes) food conditions seemed to be optimal and only determined by prevai”
Multidecadal stability of benthic community structure in a high-Arctic glacial fjord (van Mijenfjord, Spitsbergen) (2007, background): “…to four decades have been used to detect change in many benthic systems (Austin et al. 1991; Kröncke et al. 1998, 2001; Pearson and Mannvik 1998; Beukema et al. 2002; P. E. Renaud (&) Æ H. Trannum Æ S. Cochrane Æ S. Dahle Akvaplan-niva AS, Polar Environmental Center, 9296 Tromsø, Norway…”
Changes in the spatial distribution of North Sea plaice ( Pleuronectes platessa) and implications for fisheries management (2007, background): “In the western Wadden Sea, a decrease in primary production was observed between 1994 and 2003 from a level of about 1200 to 600 mg C m d (Cadée and Hegeman, 2002), although there is at present no indication of decreased benthic biomass in recent years (Beukema et al., 2002).”
Short- and long-term effects of eutrophication on the secondary production of an intertidal macrobenthic community (2003, background): “This leads to changes in the composition and structure of macrobenthic communities (Norkko and Bonsdorff 1996; Pardal 1998; Bachelet et al. 2000 ) and species production (Marques et al. 1994; Lillebo et al. 1999; Pardal et al. 2000, 2002; Ferreira 2001; Cardoso et al. 2002).”
Documented and Potential Biological Impacts of Recreational Fishing: Insights for Management and Conservation (2006, background): “Some studies on marine coastal habitats have shown that bait digging can locally influence the littoral fauna (Beukema, 1995; Beukema et al., 2002) and that the bait collection affected the abundance and size structure of harvested benthic organisms (e.”
Phytoplankton in the Marsdiep at the end of the 20th century; 30 years monitoring biomass, primary production, and Phaeocystis blooms (2002, methodology): “It is therefore no surprise that good relations were found between changes in macrobenthos and phytoplankton in the past (Beukema and Cadée, 1986, 1997; Beukema et al., 2002).”
Distinctly variable mudscapes: Distribution gradients of intertidal macrofauna across the Dutch Wadden Sea☆ (2013, background): “These results concur with a recent study that showed assemblage composition changed along the tidal gradient in the Balgzand (van der Graaf et al., 2009).”
