Seagrasses of Costa Rica: from the mighty Caribbean to the dynamic meadows of the Eastern Tropical Pacific
(2018)
Seagrass meadows are declining worldwide, mostly attributed to anthropogenic disturbances. Understanding the dynamics of these meadows is urgent in order to establish adequate management and conservation strategies. Here, ...
Spatial and temporal variations of meiofaunal communities from the western sector of the Gulf of Batabanó, Cuba: II. Seagrass systems
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2008)
Faunistic analysis of the caridean shrimps inhabiting seagrasses along the NW coast of the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2012)
Sediment organic carbon stocks were similar among four species compositions in a tropical seagrass meadow
(2022)
Seagrass meadows composed of larger species are assumed to store larger sediment organic carbon (Corg)
stocks, storing more Corg in their tissues and larger leaves promoting greater burial of seagrass and non-seagrass
Corg. ...
Intra- and inter-annual variation in a seagrass meadow on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica: 2009-2015
(2018)
Seagrass beds are an important ecosystem on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. At Cahuita National Park (CNP) a seagrass bed at Perezoso has been monitored continually since 1999 within the CARICOMP program. Thalassia ...
Contribution of Seagrass Blue Carbon Toward Carbon Neutral Policies in a Touristic and Environmentally-Friendly Island
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2020-01-24)
Estimates of organic carbon (C-org) storage by seagrass meadows which consider inter-habitat variability are essential to understand their potential to sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) and derive robust global and regional ...
Intra- and inter-annual variation in a seagrass meadow on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica: 2009-2015
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2018)
Microhabitat use and multivariate pattern of motile epifaunal community in relation to sediment grain size in a tropical seagrass meadow
(Universidad Nacional de Colombia, 2008)
The relationship between habitat physical structure and motile epifauna community associated to a Seagrass bed dominated by Thalassia testudinum was study over the isobaths of 1 and 3 m, in terms of species diversity, ...
