To develop the following abstracts, the editorial staff searches more than 100 scientific journals, professional and organizational newsletters, conference proceedings, and other resources for information relevant to practice and research.

Coastal & Marine Communities Effects of Surrounding Land Use and Water Depth on Seagrass Dynamics Relative to a Catastrophic Algal Bloom. 2017. Breininger, D.R. (NASA Ecological Program, Florida, david.r.breininger@nasa.gov), R.D. Breinin and C.R. Hall. Conservation Biology 31:6575. doi: 10.1111/cobi.12791 Seagrasses provide many ecosystem services, including nursery habitat, sedimentation collection, and storm surge protection. Their health and persistence are influenced by numerous external factors, making them vulnerable to degradation and loss, therefore a tool to estimate seagrass persistence could help guide restoration and conservation work. This study used multistate models in Program MARK to predict annual transitions between presence and absence of seagrass beds in the Indian River Lagoon (IRL) Florida. Using GIS and aerial photographs, Breininger and colleagues quantified annual seagrass transition probabilities at 764 locations using surrounding land use (total conservation, partial conservation, mostly urban, and urban), water depth, and year as explanatory variables for presence-absence. Data analyzed from 2003 to 2014 included the 2011 algal bloom
