DOI: 10.1007/s10021-019-00427-0
Abstract: 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 examined the relative macrobenthic contribution to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2020.108935
Abstract: Abstract Research on the habitats protected by the European Union's Habitats Directive (HD) has increased rapidly since its adoption in 1992. However, the methods and tools used to assess their conservation status are varied. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2020.116291
Abstract: Marine debris and plastic pollution affect all coastal habitats, however coastal debris studies are predominantly performed on sandy beaches. Other coastal habitats, such as mangroves, remain understudied. Eighteen of the top twenty rivers that contribute… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.1c00636
Abstract: Vegetated coastal habitats (VCHs) rank among the most intense carbon sinks in natural ecosystems, playing an important role in the global carbon cycle. A significant part of the organic carbon (OC) they store may be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.14558
Abstract: Because coastal habitats store large amounts of organic carbon (Corg ), the conservation and restoration of these habitats are considered to be important measures for mitigating global climate change. Although future sea-level rise is predicted… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0188564
Abstract: Coastal ecosystems and the livelihoods they support are threatened by stressors acting at global and local scales. Here we used the data produced by the Caribbean Coastal Marine Productivity program (CARICOMP), the longest, largest monitoring… read more here.
