Mollusks as ecosystem engineers: the role of shell production in aquatic habitats
- J. L. Gutiérrez, C. Jones, D. Strayer, O. Iribarne
- Biology
- 1 April 2003
Mollusk shells are abundant, persistent, ubiquitous physical structures in aquatic habitats. Using an ecosystem engineering perspective, we identify general roles of mollusk shell production in… Expand

Burrow characteristics, food type, and feeding h a b ~ t s of the SW Atlantlc burrowing crab Chasmagnathus grdnulata were compared between ~ n d i v ~ d u a l s iving in mud flats and In… Expand
Contrasting Effects of Two Burrowing Crabs (Chasmagnathus granulata and Uca uruguayensis) on Sediment Composition and Transport in Estuarine Environments
- F. Botto, O. Iribarne
- Geology
- 1 August 2000
The burrowing crabs Chasmagnathus granulata and Uca uruguayensis are important bioturbators of intertidal flats in SW Atlantic estuaries reworking large amounts of sediment (C. granulata 2234·6 g… Expand
Direct and indirect effects of burrowing crab Chasmagnathus granulatus activities on erosion of southwest Atlantic Sarcocornia‐dominated marshes
- M. Escapa, Darío R. Minkoff, G. Perillo, O. Iribarne

Using field measurements and field experiments, we investigated the effect of a dominant Southwest Atlantic intertidal burrowing crab, Chasmagnathus granulatus, on the inland growth of tidal creeks… Expand
Eutrophication and macroalgal blooms in temperate and tropical coastal waters: nutrient enrichment experiments with Ulva spp.
- M. Teichberg, S. Fox, +13 authors D. Tagliapietra
- Environmental Science
- Global Change Biology
- 14 October 2009
Receiving coastal waters and estuaries are among the most nutrient-enriched environments on earth, and one of the symptoms of the resulting eutrophication is the proliferation of opportunistic,… Expand
The role of the Río de la Plata bottom salinity front in accumulating debris.
- E. M. Acha, H. Mianzán, O. Iribarne, D. A. Gagliardini, C. Lasta, P. Daleo

- 1 February 2003
The Río de la Plata, one of the most important South American estuarine environments, is characterized by a bottom salinity front that generates an ecotone between the river and the estuary. Based on… Expand
The invasion of Undaria pinnatifida to a Macrocystis pyrifera kelp in Patagonia (Argentina, south-west Atlantic)
- M. P. Raffo, M. C. Eyras, O. Iribarne
- Biology
- 1 December 2009
Biological invasions can alter the biodiversity of native communities generating an ecological impact that in many cases is irreversible. In 2001, Undaria pinnatifida invaded Macrocystis pyrifera… Expand
