The necromass of the Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadow: fate, role, ecosystem services and vulnerability (2016, background): “…transparency (Molinier & Picard, 1952; Augier & Boudouresque, 1979; Boudouresque & Meinesz, 1982; Orfanidis et al., 2005; Boudouresque et al., 2009; Marbà & Duarte, 2010; Boudouresque et al., 2012; Pergent et al., 2012; Montefalcone et al., 2013), but also upon water movement (Vacchi et al.,…”
The importance of phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation in driving intraspecific variability in thermal niches of marine macrophytes (2018, background): “Warming mediated range shifts have been observed for marine macrophytes across the world (Marba and Duarte, 2010; Wernberg et al., 2011; Smale and Wernberg, 2013; Wernberg et al.,2013; Thomson et al., 2015; Wernberg et al., 2016; Krumhansl et al.,2017) and are predicted to continue as warming…”
Climate change and ocean acidification effects on seagrasses and marine macroalgae (2013, background): “Similarly, relatively low thermal tolerance of the dominant temperate seagrass species Posidonia oceanica in the Mediterranean Sea experiencing rapid warming is becoming a concern (Marbà & Duarte, 2010; Jordà et al., 2012).”
Securing ocean benefits for society in the face of climate change (2013, background): “Unfortunately, both corals [64] and temperate seagrasses [65] are highly sensitive to warming; and the occurrence of coral bleaching from thermal stress may be exacerbated by ocean acidification [9,66].”
Geographic Variation in Temperature Tolerance as an Indicator of Potential Population Responses to Climate Change (2011, background): “Furthermore, increases in extreme temperatures have been followed by mortality events (Garrabou et al., 2009; Firth and Williams, 2009; Jones et al., 2009, 2010; Marbà and Duarte, 2010).”
The Resilience of Marine Ecosystems to Climatic Disturbances (2017, background): “For example, in seagrass meadows, depth was a predictor of recovery due to the influence of light on growth (Marbà and Duarte 2010).”
The Tropical Seagrass Halophila stipulacea: Reviewing What We Know From Its Native and Invasive Habitats, Alongside Identifying Knowledge Gaps (2020, background): “Runoff of nutrients and sediments that reduce water quality and light penetration, increases in water temperatures, alongside longer, and more frequent heatwaves, have been identified as major threats to seagrass meadows (Waycott et al., 2009; Marbà and Duarte, 2010; Jordà et al., 2012; Oliver et al”
Impact of ocean acidification and warming on the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) (2014, background): “In the northwestern Mediterranean Sea, mean maximum summer temperatures have increased by about 1◦C between 2002 and 2010 relative to the 1980–2000 average (Marba and Duarte, 2010) and a rapid warming of 2.8 ± 1.1◦C is expected by the end of the century (Jorda et al., 2012).”
