Salinity Response of the Seagrass Amphibolis antarctica (Labill.) Sonder et Aschers.: an Experimental Validation of Field Results
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)Viviparous seedlings of Amphibolis antarctica were collected in May 1983 from Monkey Mia, Western Australia (26° 15' S, 113° 36'E) and grown in artificial seawater cultures ranging in salinity from 35 to 65%. Leaf number and colour were recorded and seedling…

Temperature responses of two sympatric seagrasses, Amphibolis antarctica and Amphibolis griffithii, in relation to their biogeography
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)Seedlings of the viviparous seagrasses, Amphibolis antarctica (Labill.) Sonder & Aschers. and Amphibolis griffithii (Black) den Hartog, were collected from near Dongara in 1990 and grown in seawater cultures at temperatures of 10-30 degrees Celsius. This was…

Experimental Manipulation of Canopy Density in a Temperate Seagrass [Amphibolis griffithii (Black) den Hartog] Meadow: Effects on Sediments
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)Thirty 3 m diameter plots were established in Warnbro Sound, Western Australia in early 1991, within an Amphibolis griffithii meadow, and the shoot densities manipulated to 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% (control) by pruning. These experimental manipulations were…

Seagrass, sediment and infauna - a comparison of Posidonia australis, Posidonia sinuosa and Amphibolis antarctica, Princess Royal Harbour, South-Western Australia. III. Consequences of seagrass loss
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)The study draws on the results of the studies described in metadata records (e3196ef0-e33c-11dc-97b4-00188b4c0af8 and 9c793960-e5af-11dc-a14a-00188b4c0af8) to demonstrate some of the effects of the loss of seagrasses to the total ecosystem. The area of meadows…

Seagrass, sediment and infauna - a comparison of Posidonia australis, Posidonia sinuosa and Amphibolis antarctica, Princess Royal Harbour, South-Western Australia I. Seagrass biomass, productivity and contribution to sediments
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)The above- and below-ground biomass of three seagrass species, Posidonia australis, Posidonia sinuosa and Amphibolis antarctica, were measured within Princess Royal Harbour. Three sites were used of varying water movement and eutrophication. Sediment samples…

Seagrass, sediment and infauna - a comparison of Posidonia australis, Posidonia sinuosa and Amphibolis antarctica, Princess Royal Harbour, South-Western Australia. II. Distribution, composition and abundance of macrofauna
Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)Quantitative samples of the macrofauna from three seagrass species, Posidonia australis, Posidonia sinuosa and Amphibolis antarctica, and nearby non-vegetated area were collected from three sites within Princess Royal Harbour in January 1998. The structure and…
