Abstract

The findings suggest that seagrass meadows in all regions remain vulnerable to severe disturbances in the near future, but there are signs of recovery in some indicators. Almost half of the sites decreased in abundance, but most meadows were stable or improved in extent, and the proportion of colonising species declined. Reproductive effort increased slightly though remained very poor overall, but there are seed banks present in estuarine and coastal meadows though reef habitats remain largely depleted of seeds.
