Relative impacts of morphological alteration to shorelines and eutrophication on littoral macroinvertebrates in Mediterranean lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Development of effective methods for assessing the ecological status of lakes based on littoral benthic fauna has been hampered by the lack of quantitative data on the relative impacts of key pressures on the benthic community.

Revealing the influence of hyporheic water exchange on the composition and abundance of bottom-dwelling macroinvertebrates in a temperate lowland river

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2021
We studied distributions and abundances of macroinvertebrates in relation to hyporheic water exchange (HWE) patterns of the upper Biebrza − a small, lowland, low dynamic European river located in Northeast Poland.

Environmental assessments for seabed impact and resilience from aquaculture: a case study in an intensive production area (Frøya, Norway)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Norway mandates protocols to manage salmon aquaculture’s impact on the seabed, with B-assessments for directly beneath the cages and C-assessments for the broader surrounding seabed with more chemical and biological variables. This study aimed to utilize

Benthic quality evaluation of immersion zones of sediments dredging

open access: yesRevue Paralia, 2013
Dredging operations pose the problem of sediment deposits to be evacuated by taking into account economic incidences and environmental aspects related to environmental protection. Coastal sediments are high biodiversity zones, where a multitude of living organisms have a special relationship with their substrate.

Habitat change driven by plant invasion restructures benthic diversity in intertidal wetlands

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Since its introduction to China in 1979, Spartina alterniflora has steadily expanded along the southeast coast of China and reshaped the intertidal ecosystem by altering the properties of sediments. These changes, in turn, will affect the composition and

Valanginian to Barremian Benthic Foraminifera from ODP Site 766 (Leg 123, Indian Ocean) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
A Valanginian to Barremian bathyal foraminiferal assemblage (118 taxa belonging to 51 genera) is documented from ODP Site 766, drilled near the foot of the Exmouth Plateau off northwest Australia.

Biostratigraphy, facies and sequence stratigraphy of the Sarvak Formation in the Ahwaz Oil Field, North Dezful Embayment Zone [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2016
Paleontological studies lead to recognition of 21 genera and 16 species of benthic foraminifera, 5 genera and 6 species of planktonic foraminifera and 3 genera and 3 species of oligosteginids.

Profundal benthic invertebrates in an oligotrophic tropical lake: different strategies for coping with anoxia

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2014
The deep benthic communities of tropical lakes are poorly understood with respect to their composition, abundance, biomass and regulatory factors. Whereas the hypolimnia of temperate oligotrophic lakes remain oxygenated, the higher temperatures in ...

Long-term change in benthopelagic fish abundance in the abyssal northeast Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Food web structure, particularly the relative importance of bottom-up and top-down control of animal abundances, is poorly known for the Earth's largest habitats: the abyssal plains.

Planktonic and benthic foraminiferal biostratigraphy of the Middle Eocene–Lower Miocene successions from the Sivas Basin (Central Anatolia, Turkey)

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2016
Planktonic and benthic foraminifera are described from the Middle Eocene-Lower Miocene successions in the Sivas Basin, Central Anatolia. An integrated foraminiferal zonation provides new age assignments in terms of a great number of taxa for the studied ...
