Abstract

One of the main limitations found in the numerical models available to simulate seagrass dynamics is the absence of processes that differentiate intertidal from subtidal seagrass meadows, namely the desiccation undergone by the leaves when emerged. The main objective of this work is therefore to contribute towards the mechanistic development and testing of a desiccation module to be later coupled with a numerical seagrass model, discussing its limitations and potential further improvements.
