Seagrass epiphyte loads along a nutrient availability gradient, Florida Bay, USA
Open accessAbstract
Total epiphyte load, epiphyte chlorophyll load, epiphyte autotrophic ~n d e x and seagrass short shoot size are compared with water column nutrient concentrations and the elemental composition of seagrass leaf tlssue The s p a t ~a l patterns ~n these parameters are described across a nutrlent ava~lability gradlent In Flonda Bay, Flor~da, USA Multivanate and un~variate statistical analyses were performed on these parameters to test for correlations with vanous measures of nutnent availab~lity Most of the vanation in Thalassia testudjnum short shoot size could be descnbed by p h o s p h o ~u s avail-ab111ty dissolved organic matter in the watei column and water column inorganic nltrogen concentrations Total epiphyte and epiphyte chlorophyll loads were significantly, but weakly, colrelated with phosphorus avallab~lity The measurement of total epiphyte loads and observat~ons of e p i p h y t ~c species composition along a transect adjacent to a p o ~n t source of nutnents revealed that the effect of nutrient e n r ~c h m e n t on epiphyte levels IS pronounced but very localized Epiphyte levels may not be as sensltive to moderate nutnent enrichment as othel seagrass parameters ( e g leaf tissue nutrient content)

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.
