Dynamic ecosystems under anthropogenic stress : how does macrotidal sandy fauna respond to green tides?
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 20.05.2016)Highly dynamic systems, often considered as resilient systems, are characterised by abiotic and biotic processes under continuous and strong changes in space and time. Because of this variability, the detection of overlapping ... -
Human Ecosystem Engineering : Effects and Feedback in Coastal Benthic Systems
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 16.02.2024)In the attempt to enhance their environment, humans are causing changes in ecosystems worldwide, by acting as ecosystem engineers. Changes in ecosystems, caused by any ecosystem engineering species, have the potential to ... -
Interpreting marine benthic ecosystem functioning in coastal waters: validating the biological trait concept
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 21.03.2014)Coastal areas harbour high biodiversity, but are simultaneously affected by rapid degradations of species and habitats due to human interactions. Such alterations also affect the functioning of the ecosystem, which is ... -
Patterns in diversity and function of benthic fauna in a coastal system under environmental change
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 10.03.2017)Increasing changes in environmental conditions are reshaping marine ecosystems and their communities on a global scale. Coastal areas are particularly vulnerable as environmental stressors have a stronger impact due to the ... -
Zoobenthos as indicators of marine habitats in the northern Baltic Sea
(Åbo Akademi University, 05.06.2020)Zoobenthos are beneficial indicators of habitat quality and environmental stress and change due to their longevity and how they react species-specifically to abiotic factors. This PhD, consisting of four published papers, ...
