- Abstract
The article presents a study which focuses enhancing the on seagrass restoration process by excluding antagonistc engineering interactions. The study used bioturbating lugworm Arenicola marina and the sediment-stabilizing seagrass Zostera noltii, in which a shell layer underneath the seagrass transplants was applied. The study reveals the significance of considering the negative engineering interactions in ecological theory and practice.
