The role of the deposit feeding bivalve Macomona liliana in a simple biophysical model for predicting estuarine ecosystem tipping points
(The University of Waikato, 2022)Estuaries are highly productive, coastal marine environments that provide vital ecosystem functions supporting human health. Throughout history, many major settlements have been established adjacent to estuaries, so to ... -
Spatial structuring and patterns of connectivity among Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) stocks in the Southern Ocean: a view through otolith chemistry
(The University of Waikato, 2022)An important prerequisite of sustainable fisheries management is knowledge about the spatial structure of fish populations. Such information provides a basis for understanding population dynamics and connectivity as well ... -
Implications of sea-level rise on estuarine benthic biodiversity and ecosystem functioning
(The University of Waikato, 2022)Estuarine habitats are among the most productive ecosystems around the globe. The macroinvertebrate communities within these habitats underpin ecosystem functioning and therefore the provision of ecosystem services valued ... -
The effects of ocean acidification on microbial nutrient cycling and productivity in coastal marine sediments
(The University of Waikato, 2022)Ocean Acidification (OA), commonly referred to as the “other CO₂ problem,” illustrates the current rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels, precipitated in large by human-related activity (e.g., fossil fuel combustion ... -
Effect of exposure on the erodibility of intertidal mudflats
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Sediments on intertidal flats are exposed during low tides. Under the effect of exposure, the water content of sediments decreases because of the evaporation process, which alters the erosive behaviour of cohesive sediments, ...
