6. Introduced and indigenous macroalgae : Ecological effects, functions and regulating factors in tropical seascapes
Sammanfattning : Tropical marine shallow-water areas are highly productive systems that promote important ecological functions and biodiversity. Stressors on these systems are intensifying due to increasing anthropogenic disturbances on multiple scales. LÄS MER
7. Aspects of offshore renewable energy and the alterations of marine habitats
Sammanfattning : Several Western European countries are planning for a massive offshore renewable energy (i.e. wind and wave energy) development (ORED) along the European Atlantic coast and in the Baltic Sea. LÄS MER
8. Effects of contrasting types of marine protected areas on seagrass- and coral communities : are community-based reserves an important complement to government-managed protected areas?
Sammanfattning : Coastal ecosystems, including seagrass beds and coral reefs, are among the most ecological and economical important ecosystems on Earth. At the same time as these ecosystems support livelihoods of coastal communities they are being highly degraded worldwide. LÄS MER
9. Evolution of annelid diversity at whale-falls and other marine ephemeral habitats
Sammanfattning : When whales die and sink to the sea-floor, they provide a sudden, enormous food supply to organisms in the vicinity. At first, larger mobile scavengers remove the flesh, but also when only the bones remain, the whale-fall can still sustain macrofauna communities for several years. LÄS MER
10. Round goby Neogobius melanostomus in the Baltic Sea – Invasion Biology in practice
Sammanfattning : Human mediated transfer of non-indigenous species is considered to be a major threat to global biodiversity. The Ponto-Caspian round goby (Neogobius melanostomus), which has established populations in various regions in Eurasia and North-America, was first observed in Gulf of Gdańsk, Baltic Sea, in 1990.
