Accelerated Nitrogen Cycling on Seagrass Leaves in a High-CO2 World

The paper shows that ocean acidification increases nitrogen gain and N2 fixation in seagrass leaves, with microbial communities playing a key role in nitrogen cycling.

Chemosymbiotic bivalves contribute to the nitrogen budget of seagrass ecosystems

The paper investigates the role of lucinid bivalves and their symbionts in nitrogen cycling in seagrass ecosystems, finding they contribute significant ammonium to the ecosystem.
