Density of benthic macroalgae in the intertidal zone varies with surf zone hydrodynamics

Phycologia, 2019
Surf zone hydrodynamics influence subsidies (larval settlers and phytoplankton food) to the intertidal zone; subsidies have been observed to be much higher at more dissipative shores compared to re...

The relative roles of multiple drivers on benthic ciliate communities in an intertidal zone

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2023
Intertidal biodiversity is being severely disrupted as a result of increased anthropogenic activity. However, our knowledge about how natural gradients, human induced disturbance and biotic interactions affect biodiversity is limited. So, we investigated how three facets of alpha diversity and community composition of benthic ciliates responded to ...

The benthic zone

2004
The ecosystem of the benthos, which is situated on the continental shelf, slope and abyssal plains, consists of bottom sediments, zoobenthos, bottom fish fauna, bot­tom waters and porewater in sediments. The process of accumulation of sus­pended and dissolved radionuclides on the shelf, continental slope and further on the Ocean bottom is determined by

Two apparatuses for sampling benthic fauna in surf zones

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 1985
Abstract A suction corer which has been used in the turbulent surf zone is described as well as a scoop dredge which proved effective in shallow water and on dry beaches. The former is also effective under calm conditions in water ranging from a few centimetres to depths in excess of 20 m.

Contrasting habitats but comparable microbial decomposition in the benthic and hyporheic zone

Science of The Total Environment, 2017
Input of allochthonous leaf litter is the main carbon source for heterotrophic metabolism in low-order forested streams. A major part of this leaf litter is accumulated at benthic retention structures or buried in the hyporheic zone. As a result of hyporheic sediment characteristics, hyporheic physicochemistry differs from that of the benthic zone ...

Benthic Meiofaunal Diversity in Four Zones of Pichavaram Mangrove Forest, India

Journal of Foraminiferal Research, 2021
ABSTRACTThe community structure of meiofauna was assessed relative to environmental parameters in four zones (non-mangrove, Avicennia zone, mixed zone, and Rhizophora zone) of Pichavaram Mangrove Forest, which is located along the southeast coast of India. Field sampling was carried out from June 2016–May 2017.

Ecology of benthic foraminifers in the littoral zone of Iturup Island

Oceanology, 2006
The composition and abundance of present-day benthic foraminifers in the littoral zone of Iturup Island are examined. The littoral zone is surveyed on the sides of both the Sea of Okhotsk and the Pacific Ocean. The greatest species diversity and the maximum foraminifer abundance were observed on the bench and at the sites of attachment of seaweeds and ...

Bathyal zone benthic foraminiferal genera off Northeast Newfoundland

The Journal of Foraminiferal Research, 1981
About 35% of the bathyal zone foraminiferal genera observed on the north east Newfoundland slope and rise, whether arenaceous (43 genera) or calcareous (63) have an average absolute abundance per genus of greater than one specimen per cubic cm of wet sediment.

The Mapping Of Benthic Biocenoses In The Coastal Zone Of Latvia

No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. The results of surveys are presented as maps of distribution of Furcellaria and blue mussel along the Latvian coast for 1990, 1998 and 1999.

Production of Benthic Microalgae in the Littoral Zone of a Eutrophic Lake

Oikos, 1971
Primary production by benthic microalgae of the sandy littoral zone in a Danish eutrophic lake, Fures0, was measured by means of the 14C method. Annual potential gross production was calculated as 297 g C m-2, with highest values in July (2,200 mg C m-2 day-'). Annual true gross production was estimated to be 143 g C m-2.
