Mangroves and salt marshes are among the most productive ecosystems in the global
coastal ocean. Mangroves store more carbon (739 Mg CORG ha− 1) than salt marshes (334 …

Seaweed and seagrass communities in the northeast Atlantic have been profoundly
impacted by humans, and the rate of change is accelerating rapidly due to runaway CO 2 …

Intertidal macroalgal habitats are major components of temperate coastal ecosystems. Their
distribution was studied using field sampling and hyperspectral remote mapping on a rocky …

Rising global temperatures caused by human-mediated change has already triggered
significant responses in organismal physiology, distribution and ecosystem functioning …

The large brown seaweeds (macroalgae) are keystone species in intertidal and shallow
subtidal marine ecosystems and are harvested for food and other products. Recently, there …

A central goal of benthic ecology is to describe the pathways and quantities of energy and
material flow in seafloor communities over different spatial and temporal scales. We …

Photoautotrophic marine ecosystems can lock up organic carbon in their biomass and the
associated organic sediments they trap over millennia and are thus regarded as blue carbon …

Foundation species, such as trees, corals, grasses, oysters, and rockweeds, must be
common and abundant to effectively modify the physical environment and increase …

In this study, we combined remote sensing data and in situ observations to explore the
potential habitats of macroalgae at Libukang Island, Indonesia. High-resolution satellite …

Macroalgae are undoubtedly a major supplier of organic carbon to marine food webs, yet
few studies have attempted to examine primary production in complex macroalgal …
