Microphytobenthos (MPB) represent a crucial component of intertidal ecosystems, underpinning both local sediment stability and broader coastal biogeochemical cycles. These microalgal communities ...

The resuspension of microphytobenthos (mainly benthic diatoms) and mud $(<55-\mu m fraction)$ from tidal flats was studied in the Ems estuary (Netherlands/Germany), of which $\thicksim 50%$ is covered ...

Nutrient fluxes and primary production were examined in Lake Illawarra (New South Wales, Australia), a shallow ( Z mean =1.9 m) coastal lagoon with a surface area of 35 km 2, by intensive measurement ...

For the study, Riekenberg and colleagues looked at the chemical variations in the isotopes of nitrogen. There are two predominate forms of nitrogen, 'nitrogen-14' and the heavier version, 'nitrogen-15 ...
