Cover Story: The picture shows a dead matte area, precisely when the Costa Concordia shipwreck occurred, characterized by the spread of the invasive green algae Caulerpa cylindracea. The matte is a biogenic substrate, formed by the dense twist of seagrass roots, rhizomes, and sediment, that represents what remains after the regression of the Mediterranean endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica. Our work published in Water (Volume 13, Issue 10) highlighted that Posidonia regression enhances the spread of C. cylindracea, and dead matte represents excellent substrata for the diffusion of this invasive algae. In less than one year, this species has gone from a vulnerable state to critical due to a parasite that infects fan mussels and causes death. View this paper
