Habitat-diversity relations between sessile macrobenthos and benthic copepods in the rocky shores of a marine protected area Universiteit Gent
In rocky shore systems, sessile macrobenthic assemblages may act as "ecosystem engineers" for many smaller benthic organisms. Thus, the influence of macrobenthic coverage on the diversity and assemblage structure of the harpacticoid copepod fauna was investigated in the rocky shores of a Marine Protect Area (MPA) in the Ligurian Sea (NW, Mediterranean Sea). Two sampling sites were investigated in two seasons at three different depths on both ...

Coexistence dilemmas in European marine spatial planning practices : the case of marine renewables and marine protected areas Universiteit Gent
A generic framework to assess the representation and protection of benthic ecosystems in European marine protected areas Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek
There is concern across the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) region that a consideration of vulnerable components and the wider support mechanisms underpinning benthic marine ecosystems may be lacking from the process of marine protected area (MPA) designation, management and monitoring. In this study, MPAs across six European ecoregions were assessed from a benthic ecology perspective. The study included 102 MPAs, ...
