Why plant more seagrass if water quality doesn’t meet standards?
Poor water quality can arise from many different sources and some do not negatively affect seagrass. In fact, substandard water quality can even aid seagrass survival in shallow water because it protects photosynthesis. Seagrass improves water quality by absorbing pollutants as well as stabilizing and trapping sediment. It is crucial to have a healthy seagrass meadow to maintain and improve water quality.
