Heavy nutrient loads in coastal waters often lead to excessive growth of microalgal and macroalgal epiphytes on seagrass leaves, with varying effects on the underlying seagrasses. This study evaluates the photosynthetic performance, epiphytic biomass and tissue nutrient content of two tropical seagrasses, Cymodocea serrulata and Thalassia hemprichii, in two intertidal areas along the Dar es Salaam coast in the Indian Ocean, a nutrient-rich region at Ocean Road (near the city centre), and a nutrient-poor region at Mjimwema (south of the city centre). Epiphyte biomass was significantly higher at the nutrient-rich site, and epiphytes were associated with reduced photosynthetic performance in both seagrass species at both sites. Likewise, nitrogen and phosphorus tissue content was higher in both species at the nutrient-rich site than at the nutrient-poor site. Epiphytic species composition on the seagrass leaves varied between seagrass species and between sites. Cymodocea serrulata had a higher number of epiphytic species at Mjimwema than at Ocean Road, whereas Thalassia hemprichii had more epiphytic species at Ocean Road than at Mjimwema. Seagrass photosynthetic performance, epiphytic biomass and nutrient content of the seagrasses were shown to be affected by nutrient concentration in the water column. Thus, for the future monitoring of the seagrass meadow, we recommend the use of combined measures such as seagrass performance, epiphytic biomass, nutrient contents and nutrient concentration levels in the water column. 相似文献

海草的种内差异是它在特定环境中形成生长策略的关键因素。本研究通过将现场实测数据和文献记录进行类比以探讨新村湾海黾草（Thalassia hemprichii）的生长策略。研究结果表明海黾草地下茎伸长速率的差异可以解释该海草生物量和生长的大部分种内差异;新村湾海黾草垂直地下茎和水平地下茎的伸长速率在夏季分别为2．38cm／yr和24．4cm／yr,在冬季分别为1．87cm／yr和29．2cm／yr。海黾草茎枝密度的变化范围是822shootsm^-2至941shoots m^-2,最大值出现在夏季而最小值出现在冬季,生物量的季节变化与此类似。新村湾海黾草通过交替调节垂直地下茎和水平地下茎的伸长速率以适应光照强度和温度的季节变化,从而导致茎枝密度和地上生物量的相应变化。通过这样的生长策略,海黾草可以把夏季干旱和冬季光照强度下降对其生长造成的消极影响降低到最小程度。 相似文献

This study shows that in a multi-species seagrass meadow in a shallow and clear-water site, all the former seagrass species were able to recolonize in the artificially created gaps of 0.25 m2 in size within ca. 2 yr. Extrapolation of the recolonization curves of the different species predicted a full recovery within 10 yr post-disturbance. Fitted curves for the dominant species Enhalus acoroides and Thalassia hemprichii showed contrasting strategies, the latter having a comparatively high intrinsic rate, achieving full recovery within ca. 2 yr post-disturbance. E. acoroides was the latest species to establish and the projected full-recovery time was among the longest (ca. 10 yr). The effect of timing of gap creation was generally not significant (except for Syringodium isoetifolium) neither was the temporal variation in density of most species outside the gaps. As recolonization by sexual propagules was found to be low, increasing the gap size would most probably require a much longer recovery period. A crude estimate for E. acoroides would be >10 yr for 1 m2 of gap. Further, since the densities of most seagrass species vary significantly between sites, and colonization rates depend on adjacent seagrass densities, the recovery curves would also be different across sites. 相似文献
