Estuarine ecosystems are considered among the most valuable regions worldwide because of the wealth of ecosystem services they provide. Given their proximity to the land, they are …
Coastal eutrophication models have proposed that various environmental conditions can serve as filters mediating the effects of nutrient loading on coastal ecosystems. Variation in …
Eutrophication is one of the key local stressors for coastal marine ecosystems, particularly in those locations with many estuaries, intense coastal development or agriculture, and a lack …
Artificial fertilizers are contributing to the replacement of eelgrass (Zostera marina) by sea lettuce (Ulva lactuca) in estuaries of Prince Edward Island (PEI), Canada. In this study, we …
Here we evaluated the response to eutrophication in terms of abundance and diversity of flora and fauna in a semi-desert macrotidal coastal system (San Antonio bay, Patagonia …
