None of the {\textquotedblleft}usual suspects{\textquotedblright} (dessication tolerance, light limitation, interspecific competition) adequately explain the different estuarine zones occupied by the two species.

	note = {"Global climate change will impact the three dominate drivers of estuarine seagrass productivity, temperature, light and nutrients. The response of Pacific Northwest (PNW) Z. marina to interactive effects of temperature and nitrogen conditions was experimentally evaluated. . . . Temperature played a dominant role controlling Z. marina response to nutrients; nitrogen toxicity was not observed, and in general the effects of temperature and nutrients were not synergistic. This work highlights the complex nature of Z. marina response to environmental conditions; additional multifactor experiments will be required to tease apart these interactions."
