Dataset: Seagrass, sediment and infauna - a comparison of Posidonia australis, Posidonia sinuosa and Amphibolis antarctica, Princess Royal Harbour, South-Western Australia. III. Consequences of seagrass loss

Description

The study draws on the results of the studies described in metadata records (e3196ef0-e33c-11dc-97b4-00188b4c0af8 and 9c793960-e5af-11dc-a14a-00188b4c0af8) to demonstrate some of the effects of the loss of seagrasses to the total ecosystem. The area of meadows of the three dominant seagrass species in Princess Royal Harbour in 1960 was compared to the area in 1998.
