WAMSI Node 3.2.2c - Spatial variation in algal-herbivore interactions on the Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia
This study was nested in sub-project 3.2.2 “Ecosystem impacts of human usage and the effectiveness of zoning for the biodiversity conservation” in Node 3.2. The focus of this... -
Shade-induced Response and Recovery of the Seagrass Posidonia sinuosa
A number of physiological, morphological and growth characteristics (photosynthetic photon flux density, sediment redox potential, sediment nutrients, shoot density and biomass,... -
Phytoplankton dynamics in a seasonal estuary - Swan River Estuary, Western Australia
To examine how phytoplankton biomass and species' successions are influenced by multiple variables in the Swan River estuary, the four primary phytoplankton groups were modelled... -
Physiological Characteristics of the Seagrass Posidonia sinuosa along a Depth-Related Gradient of Light Availability
Rapid light curve-derived parameters, light harvesting pigments, photoprotective pigments as well as nutrient and carbohydrate concentrations were measured for Posidonia sinuosa... -
Peel-Harvey Estuary Samphire Marshes Data
This study was undertaken to examine the ecology and extent of saltmarshes of the Peel-Harvey. The extent and composition of the samphire saltmarshes was investigated over the... -
Morphological Characteristics of the Seagrass Posidonia sinuosa along a Depth-Related Gradient of Light Availability
Morphological and growth characteristics of the meadow-forming seagrass Posidonia sinuosa, were measured along a depth-related gradient of light to infer its response to long-... -
Effects of Reduced Light Availability on Carbon and Nitrogen Translocation in Posidonia sinuosa
The influence of shading on the translocation of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in Posidonia sinuosa plants was investigated from December 2004 to January 2005 in Cockburn Sound by... -
An investigation of hypothesis testing and power analysis in impact assessment, using case studies of marine infauna.
This thesis used several BACI-style statistical tests for impact (MBACI and BACI-style planned comparisons) and examined the statistical power of the tests using infaunal data... -
