  • Water Flow in Seagrass Ecosystems - Seagrass Density Effects on Water Flow

    Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)

    Field and laboratory experiments were conducted to study the effects of water velocity on bending of shoots and canopy compression at different densities of Amphibolis antarctica and Posidonia sinuosa. A hydrodynamic study associated with the project…

  • Water Flow in Seagrass Ecosystems - Water Motion and Productivity

    Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)

    Field studies were conducted to investigate the effects of two levels of water velocity (exposure) on seagrass standing crop (biomass) and consequently community productivity. These results were then related to laboratory studies examining the physiological…

  • Water Flow in Seagrass Ecosystems - Hydrodynamic environment of seagrass meadows

    Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)

    The hydrodynamic environment within the seagrass canopy of Amphibolis griffithii, Posidonia australis, Posidonia sinuosa and mixed Posidonia beds was studied, and compared with a bare sand site (See thumbnail). Electronic current meters developed by the author…

  • Comparative foraging ecology of five sympatric terns at a sub-tropical island in the eastern Indian Ocean

    Australian Ocean Data Network (AODN)

    Dietary samples (regurgitates) were collected from the five most numerous tern species from 1993 to 1999 on Pelsaert Island, Houtman Abrolhos island group, off the mid-western coast of Australia. Items identified were related to observations of foraging…
