Experimental Manipulation of Canopy Density in a Temperate Seagrass [Amphibolis griffithii (Black) den Hartog] Meadow: Effects on Sediments

Created 25/06/2017

Updated 11/08/2023

Thirty 3 m diameter plots were established in Warnbro Sound, Western Australia in early 1991, within an Amphibolis griffithii meadow, and the shoot densities manipulated to 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% (control) by pruning. These experimental manipulations were monitored and maintained on a monthly basis until March 1993. The effects of these density changes on sediments were investigated.
