Living in the intertidal: desiccation and shading reduce seagrass growth, but high salinity or population of origin have no additional effect

The limiting effects of stressors like desiccation, light and salinity on seagrass growth and distribution are well-studied. However, little is known about their interactive effects, and whether such effects might differ among populations that are adapted to different local conditions. In two labora...
