New study uncovers unprecedented declines in iconic kelp forests along Monterey Peninsula, with glimmers of hope in Oregon and Mexico Topics: Ocean Plants Seagrass
- The 10,000-foot view - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
Whether it’s an algae-carpeted intertidal zone or a tropical mangrove, a waving seagrass meadow or a fecund salt marsh, plants and seaweed are the engines of coastal biodiversity—a green-tinged litmus of ecosystem health and “blue carbon” capacity
- Tracking dispersal of baby fish for better reef conservation
WITH MARINE ECOSYSTEMS FACING ENORMOUS THREATS INCLUDING CLIMATE CHANGE AND OVERFISHING, understanding the littlest things can help to inform efforts to protect fish, fisheries, and coral reefs Among those little things are the thousands of offspring that reef fish produce Tracking the patterns of how larval reef fish disperse in the open ocean can provide important data to feed into spatial
- Coastal Ecosystems - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
The narrow region where land and ocean meet is among the most dynamic and complex collection of physical and biological systems on Earth These can include seagrass meadows, salt marshes, mangroves, wetlands, estuaries, reefs, and bays often linked in an intricate network of physical, chemical, and biological interchanges above and below the water They are often highly productive, highly
- Ocean Plants - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
Ocean plants are critical to marine life—they are an important food source, they provide oxygen to surrounding marine life, and they supply refuge and nursery grounds

- Oil Spills - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
Remote sensing instruments detect variations in the ocean’s surface to identify areas with oil and those without Once an instrument detects a spill, it must be contained quickly, particularly if it occurs near sensitive marine ecosystems, such as coral reefs, estuaries, seagrass meadows, and mangrove forests
