Eelgrass-macroalgae interactions; context-dependency in upwelling-influenced estuaries

Creator:

Hessing-Lewis, Margot

Abstract:

This dissertation investigates the context-dependency of species interactions between seagrass and macroalgae in upwelling-influenced estuaries. In all coastal systems, nutrient loading is multidirectional, resulting from mostly freshwater and marine inputs. The directionality of nutrient inputs may affect the rate of supply of organic matter to the system. In systems where...
