Productivity and biomass of Thalassia testudinum as related to water column nutrient availability and epiphyte levels: field observations and experimental studies
Open accessAbstract
Thalassia testudinum meadows from 0.5 m and 2.0 m (MLW) depths were studied a t 9 sites in the Florida Keys and western Caribbean.Two meadows, one offshore of a populated island with over 2000 septic tanks, and one offshore of a large bird rookery, were similar in having elevated levels of water column nutrients (DIN and SRP), greater epiphyte levels, low shoot densities, low leaf area indces, and low biomass.Increased blade turnover time was partially responsible for increased epiphyte levels offshore of the populated island, but epiphyte communities developed faster on seagrass blades there than at a paired site offshore of an uninhabited island.Results of aquarium experiments approximated the observed phenomena from the field studies: elevated water column nutrients produced increased epiphyte levels and decreased blade turnover rates.Reduced irradiance moderated the effect of nutrient enrichment on epiphyte levels.Elevated levels of water column nutrients, by stimulating epiphyte growth, reduced rhizome growth rates.This could b e related to the observed lower shoot density of T. testudinum meadows near sources of water column nutrient enrichment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
