NotesEelgrass offer vital habitats for many species. Yet eelgrass populations around the world are declining. In this article, the authors examine the potential role of hydrogen sulfide in inhibiting eelgrass growth. This study showed that the size of eelgrass root mass was an important variable in understanding the plants’ interactions with sulfides.
