Circumventing demographic processes that limit seagrass restoration. This project aims to explore a demographic approach for seed-based restoration of seagrasses. Sustainable strategies are needed to restore the structure and function of seagrass ecosystems. Although seed-based restoration has been successfully used for decades in terrestrial ecosystems, failures in seagrass restoration are common because the science of seed-based restoration is grossly underdeveloped, and transitions from dispersed seed, seedling, recruiting juvenile to reproductive adult in seagrasses are poorly understood. Recent demographic approaches in terrestrial vegetation restoration identify transitions most limiting to recruitment and successful establishment. Anticipated outcomes are successful seed-based restoration of seagrasses.

规避限制海草恢复的人口过程。该项目旨在探索基于种子的海草恢复的人口学方法。需要可持续的战略来恢复海草生态系统的结构和功能。虽然基于种子的恢复已成功地用于陆地生态系统的几十年，失败的海草恢复是常见的，因为基于种子的恢复科学是严重欠发达的，和过渡分散的种子，幼苗，招募少年到繁殖成年海草知之甚少。最近的陆地植被恢复的人口统计方法确定过渡最限制招聘和成功建立。预期的结果是成功地以种子为基础恢复海草。
