There is an increasing demand for environmental assessments of the marine environment to
include ecosystem function. However, existing schemes are predominantly based on …

Estuarine Ecohydrology, Second Edition, provides an ecohydrology viewpoint of an estuary
as an ecosystem by focusing on its principal components, the river, the estuarine waters, the …

Bioturbation, the biogenic modification of sediments through particle reworking and burrow
ventilation, is a key mediator of many important geochemical processes in marine systems …

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a key technology to reduce carbon dioxide (CO 2)
emissions from industrial processes in a feasible, substantial, and timely manner. For …

Microplastics are ubiquitous in the marine environment, however, the mechanisms
governing their uptake by, and burial within, seabed habitats are poorly understood. In this …

Reef-building bivalves like oysters and mussels are conspicuous ecosystem engineers in
intertidal and subtidal coastal environments. By forming complex, three-dimensional …

Microplastics (MP) are omnipresent contaminants in the oceans, however little is known
about the MP transfer between marine compartments and species. Three connected …

In this study, we investigated the emergence of spatial self-organized patterns on intertidal
flats, resulting from the interaction between biological and geomorphological processes …

The intensity of marine heatwaves is increasing due to climate change. Heatwaves may
affect macroinvertebrates' bioturbating behavior in intertidal areas, thereby altering the …

Disentangling the roles of environmental change and natural environmental variability on
biologically mediated ecosystem processes is paramount to predict future marine ecosystem …
