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 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

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...

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.

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.

Prevalence of Parasites in Fish from The Pelagic and Benthic Zones

Malaysian Applied Biology, 2023
The present research is a comparative study on the prevalence of parasites in marine finfish among the two major marine zones; namely the pelagic zone and benthic zone. The objectives of the present study were to investigate the parasite prevalence in both zones, as well as to determine the effect of differing marine zones regarding the presence of ...

Sedentary urchins influence benthic community composition below the macroalgal zone

Marine Ecology, 2014
AbstractSea urchins are important ecosystem engineers in subtidal ecosystems worldwide, providing biogenic structure and altering nutrient dynamics through intensive grazing and drift algal capture. The current work evaluates red urchin (Strongylocentrotus franciscanus) density on fixed transects through time, individual displacement, and urchin ...

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 ...

Distribution of Benthic Foraminifera in Littoral Zone of Besant Nagar, Chennai

2021
Foraminifera species found in ocean waters play an important role as pollution indicators as well as ecologically important roles in the carbon cycle in sediment waters. The objective of this study was to explore different species of Foraminifera distributed along the littoral zone of ocean waters of Besant Nagar beach of Chennai.
