Seagrass distribution and seasonal biomass changes in relation to dugong grazing in the Moluccas, East Indonesia.
Aquatic Botany 50(1): 1-19. 2 tabs. 14 figs.
–Studies of a seagrass bed at Ambon dominated by Halodule uninervis, and of biomass removal and recovery in natural and artificial dugong feeding tracks, indicated that the dugongs seemed to be maximizing their intake of rhizomes with high levels of total organic carbon, and therefore maximizing their net rate of energy intake.
