Seed predation by insects in mangrove forests in north Queensland
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Field surveys of insect damage to mangrove seeds or propagules were carried out at 12 locations in north Queensland. Mangrove forests at the Escape River, Wenlock River, Claudie... -
The influence of leaf-burying crabs on energy flow and export from mangrove...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Comparisons of leaf turnover by crabs (Sesarma messa) and microbes were carried out at Chunda Bay. Yellowing leaves of Rhizophora stylosa, which were about to fall, were... -
Mangrove litter fall data from Hinchinbrook Island and northern Cape York,...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Mangrove litter collections were made over three years from March 1975 to June 1978. Most litter collection sites were situated in Missionary Bay, Hinchinbrook Island. Stations... -
Estimating above-ground biomass in multi-stemmed mangrove trees along the...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Single and multi-stemmed trees of the mangroves Rhizophora stylosa and Avicennia marina were sampled from Port Hedland, Dampier and Exmouth Gulf in the Pilbara region of Western... -
Primary production and nutrients in Darwin Harbour, Northern Territory
Australian Institute of Marine Science
On three trips (in February and October 2004 and February 2006) samples were collected in Darwin Harbour. Primary production, respiration, nutrient fluxes and N fixation were... -

Australian Institute of Marine Science
Gas exchange measurements were made on exposed sun leaves from 19 mangrove species (10 genera and 8 families) from 9 estuaries in north eastern Australia and Papua New Guinea.... -
Organic matter oxidation and sediment chemistry, Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Sampling stations were in the open lagoon of Mangrove Bay (on the the upper west coast of North West Cape), and within the back-lagoon of Ningaloo Reef. At each station,... -
Factors affecting the distribution and abundance of Grapsid crabs in the...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Pitfall traps were used to sample crab populations at five sites along a 17km reach of the Murray River, Queensland in May 1987. Sites were located along a gradient in salinity... -
Benthic microbial metabolism in tropical mangrove forests, Timor Leste
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Seven mangrove forests were sampled on the north (two stations, TL4, TL5) and south (BC1, SL1, SL2, TL6, TB1) coasts of Timor Leste. TL4 and TL5 were sampled at the end of the... -
