2020, Marine Pollution BulletinCitation Excerpt :In 2002 and 2017, field (in situ) investigations revealed that shoot density and leaf area index of Zostera marina were higher than those reported in literature for the Mediterranean Sea (Mazzella et al., 1998). Instead, the shoot density of Zostera noltei showed different values in 2002 and 2017 but similar to those reported in a previous study (Curiel et al., 1996). These data suggest that the seagrass meadows were characterized by a good health status (Procaccini et al., 2003).
Reproductive strategy of the intertidal seagrass Zostera japonica under different levels of disturbance and tidal inundation
2017, Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf ScienceCitation Excerpt :No seedlings were observed throughout the experimental period at the three study stations. The lack of seedlings was widely reported in the intertidal seagrass meadows (Hootsmans et al., 1987; Loques et al., 1988, 1990; Harrison, 1993; Curiel et al., 1996). In this study, the seed density in sediments was highest after the release of seeds from flowering shoots, and then rapidly decreased during the germination season in winter and early spring.
The role of seagrasses in coastal protection in a changing climate
2014, Coastal EngineeringCitation Excerpt :Accordingly, P. oceanica may be one of the species with highest capacity to attenuate hydrodynamic energy. In contrast, Z. noltii is the species with the lowest number of leaves, width and length, although it can reach very high values of density (22,000 shoots/m2) in the Mediterranean (Curiel et al, 1996). Another important factor is the morphology of the plants which may explain not only the vertical biomass distribution, but the current velocity profile within the meadow (Ackerman and Okubo, 1993; Gambi et al., 1990; Koch et al., 2006; van Keulen and Borowitzka, 2002).
