However, it is known that <i>Z. marina</i> also occurs at high nutrient concentrations when growing in low salinity environments. In this study, we investigated the separate and interactive effects of nutrients and salinity on <i>Z. marina</i> plants in a 5 wk experiment. Two populations were tested; one originating from a relatively marine habitat and the other from an estuarine habitat. Supplied salinities were 23, 26 and 30 parts per thousand S, and supplied water nutrient levels were nitrate:ammonium:phosphate, 1:3:2, 3:9:4.5 and 60:9:9 µM at a refreshment rate of 1 d<sup>-1</sup>, corresponding with a load of 20, 95 and 625 kg N ha<sup>-1</sup> yr<sup>-1</sup>. <i>Z. marina</i> was negatively influenced by high salinity. The estuarine plants showed a decreased 'vitality' (calculated from 6 plant response parameters), whereas the marine plants showed a lesser number of shoots at high salinity. The negative effect acted on the estuarine plants at 26 and 30 parts per thousand S, and on the marine plants at 30 parts per thousand S. At these high salinities, a high nutrient load had no detectable effect on the marine plants, whereas the estuarine plants were negatively influenced by high nutrient loads. At low salinity levels, i.e. marine plants at 23 and 26 parts per thousand S and estuarine plants at 23 parts per thousand S, plants from both populations were positively influenced by higher nutrient loads. It is argued that these results may explain the distribution and decline of <i>Z. marina</i> in many areas of the northern hemisphere. Examples from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean are presented.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Effects of salinity and nutrient load and their interaction on <i>Zostera marina</i>","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-22 01:31:25.273311","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":1999,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2002-04-22","DateCreate":"2002-04-22","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000084553000012","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.3354/meps190155"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":24169,"PubliDate":1999,"Pagination":"155-165","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"190","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43354,"SerRR":"Marine Ecology Progress Series.
