• Evidence of direct particle trapping by a tropical seagrass meadow (2002, background): “…energy and turbulence intensity (Gambi et al. 1990; Ackerman and Okubo 1993), promoting sedimentation and reducing resuspension (Ward et al. 1984; Gacia et al. 1999; Terrados and Duarte 2000; Gacia and Duarte 2001) and providing a mechanism to explain high particle trapping within seagrass beds.”
• A coupled model of submerged vegetation under oscillatory flow using Navier–Stokes equations (2013, background): “Among other factors their canopies contribute to dampen wave height and velocities (Fonseca and Cahalan, 1992; Koch, 2009; Mendez and Losada, 2004), reducing flow and turbulence (Nepf and Vivoni, 2000) and thereby promoting sedimentation and limiting sediment resuspension within the vegetation beds ”
• Effect of a seagrass (Posidonia oceanica) meadow on wave propagation (2012, background): “Wave energy and sediment resuspension are also reduced by seagrasses (Terrados & Duarte 2000, Verduin & Backhaus 2000, Gacia & Duarte 2001).”
• The necromass of the Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadow: fate, role, ecosystem services and vulnerability (2016, background): “(iv) Sediment stabilization on sublittoral soft bottoms and reduction in turbidity through to reduced particle resuspension (Terrados & Duarte, 2000) (Fig.”
• Recovery of deep Posidonia oceanica meadows degraded by trawling (2005, unknown): “…production, shoots balance, aborted branches n impacted and undisturbed meadows cantly buffers sediment resuspension and increases sediment retention (Gacia et al., 1999; Heiss et al., 2000; Terrados and Duarte, 2000), and this capacity is directly related to the density and cover of meadows.”
