… Hall, D., SY Lee & T. Meziane, 2006. Fatty acids as trophic tracers in an experimental estuarine
food chain: tracer transfer. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology 336: 42–…

The importance of facilitative interactions and organismal ecosystem engineering for
establishing the structure of communities is increasingly being recognised for many different …

River systems connect the terrestrial biosphere, the atmosphere and the ocean in the global
carbon cycle 1 . A recent estimate suggests that up to 3 petagrams of carbon per year could …

… This diet pattern of T sulcata was similar during the dry season, with a dominance of
bacteria and macroalgae in the food diet (Fig. 4). Nevertheless, the relative high contribution of …

We compared the fatty acid composition of the host-coral Montipora digitata with the fatty
acid composition in the coral's endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (zooxanthellae). Fatty acids as …

We used growth rates (estimated from otolith microstructure), morphometric (Fulton’s K condition
index) and lipid (triacylglycerols: sterols ratio, TAG: ST) condition indices measured on 0…

Metabolic interactions with endosymbiotic photosynthetic dinoflagellate Symbiodinium spp.
are fundamental to reef-building corals (Scleractinia) thriving in nutrient-poor tropical seas. …

Water quality parameters, sediment oxygen demand (SOD), dissolved organic and inorganic
nutrient fluxes, and N-cycle processes (nitrification; denitrification; dissimilatory nitrate …

… The mean annual litter production was 12.95 ± 2.95 t ha −1 (dry weight) with leaf fall
contributing more than 70% of the total litter production. Analysis of fatty acids (FAs) in the surface …

… The dominance of these two organic sources in the diet of T. sulcata during the rainy season
has been reported for another Okinawan intertidal flat system (Meziane and Tsuchiya, 2000)…
