Rapid sediment accumulation and microbial mineralization in forests of the mangrove Kandelia candel in the Jiulongjiang Estuary, China
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined sediment accumulation and microbial mineralization at three Kandelia candel forests spanning the intertidal zone along the south coastline of the heavily urbanized Jiulongljiang Estuary, Fujian Province, China.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrition of the giant clam Tridacna gigas (L.) I. Contribution of filter feeding and photosynthates to respiration and growth
TL;DR: It is concluded that autotrophy is the major source of carbon to this clam, potentially capable of satisfying all respiratory requirements of the host, and the potential importance of heterOTrophy to total energy needs of theHost is also significant and changes with the size of clam.
Journal ArticleDOI
Algal food supply and grazer demand in a very productive coral-reef zone
N.V.C Polunin,David Klumpp +1 more
TL;DR: Benthic algal-community net primary productivity (NPP) and herbivore ingestion rates were quantified for the productive zone dominated by the aggressive surgeonfish Acanthurus lineatus on the windward crest of Davies Reef, Great Barrier Reef, northeastern Australia.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of epiphytic periphyton and macroinvertebrate grazers in the trophic flux of a tropical seagrass community
TL;DR: Data show that epiphytes are highly productive, with turnover times of 6–8 days, compared with known values of 30–100 + days for tropical seagrass fronds, and must therefore play a major role in the trophic flux of this tropical segerass community.
