Environmental characterization of a dredging disposal site on the continental shelf of Espírito Santo, Brazil [PDF]
Dredge material placement is among the major problems in coastal management. Sedimentation caused by dredge-spoil disposal presents a series of impacts, including the burial of benthos and the suffocation of filter-feeding benthic organisms.

Diversity of hard-bottom fauna relative to environmental gradients in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard [PDF]
A baseline study of hard-bottom zoobenthos in relation to environmental gradients in Kongsfjorden, a glacial fjord in Svalbard, is presented, based on collections from 1996 to 1998. The total species richness in 62 samples from 0 to 30 m depth along five
