This project investigates how seagrass meadows influence the hydrodynamic environment, affecting the biodiversity of filter and deposit feeders. It explores the relationship between seagrass characteristics and the availability of food resources for these organisms.
Seagrasses are well known ecosystem engineers in that they can strongly affect the hydrodynamic environment within a meadow.
Benthos diversity within a seagrass meadow will predominantly consist of filter feeders and deposit feeders.
For their food supply, filter feeders will benefit from strong hydrodynamics that cause a high refreshment rate of the water column, whereas deposit feeders will benefit from attenuated hydrodynamic energy that enhances seston deposition at the sediment surface.
