Recovery of macrobenthos in defaunated tropical estuarine sediments

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2011
In the estuarine environment, hypoxia and/or anoxia have become a major cause of benthic defaunation and are strongly associated with increased eutrophication. Mesoscale field experiments were carried out to examine the recolonization and recovery time of macrobenthos after defaunation.

Organic pollution and the macrobenthos of Raritan Bay

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1984
AbstractThe Raritan Bay—Lower New York Bay complex was surveyed to examine xenobiotic—sediment—benthic relationships. The macrofauna, sediment granulometry, extractable hydrocarbons, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) were surveyed concomitantly.

[Macrobenthos community structure of macrobenthos and bioassessment of water quality in main stream of Songhua River].

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology, 2013
An investigation was conducted on the community structure of macrozoobenthos in the main stream of Songhua River in spring (April and May), summer (July and August), and autumn (from September to November), and the water quality of the main stream was assessed with biotic indices.

Trophic Structure of Abyssal Macrobenthos

1997
Abstract The influence of feeding conditions on the large-scale distribution patterns of bottom-living invertebrates larger than 5 mm has been investigated in 228 bottom trawl samples collected by Russian research vessels from depths of 3000 to 6000 m in the Pacific and Indian Oceans.

Effects of microplastics on typical macrobenthos in sargassum ecosystems

Environmental Research
Recently, microplastics (MPs) have attracted extensive attention to their wide distribution and potential toxicity in ecosystems. However, there was a lack of research focused on MPs in seaweed bed ecosystems. This study investigated the distribution and toxicity of MPs in macrobenthos in Sargassum ecosystem.

The biodiversity of macrobenthos from Jiaozhou Bay

Acta Ecologica Sinica, 2006
Abstract The current situation of the animal species biodiversity of macrobenthic fauna in the Jiaozhou Bay (South Shandong Peninsula, Yellow Sea) is reported in the present paper, based on the data from 15 investigation cruises carried out from February 1998 to November 2001.

Studies on the macrobenthos of the Southern Ocean

1976
The following thesis is written in five parts. These include a diversity paper, a zoogeography paper, two taxonomy papers, and a catalogue. Although each paper is a separate entity, they are all inherently related. The foundation of the thesis is a series of collections made between southern New Zealand and McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, intermittently ...

[Structural variability of the lithorheophile macrobenthos communities].

Zhurnal obshchei biologii, 2008
The relationship between the abundance of taxa and life forms of lithorheophile macrobenthos and its variability were studied based on 200 quantitative samples from six territories of the Palaearctic (Moscow province, northwestern Caucasus, eastern Carpathians, northern Karelia, South Urals, and Altai mountains).

Trophic structure of deep-sea macrobenthos

Marine Biology, 1972
The effect of the trophic factor on large-scale distributional patterns of deep-sea macrobenthos inhabiting the floor of the World Ocean has been studied. Two hundred and twenty-eight bottom trawl samples collected by Soviet research vessels in the Pacific and Indian Oceans at depths ranging from 3000 to 6000 m were analyzed.

Micro-look in Macrobenthos

2011
It was empasized how important is that people doing marine sciences go diving and learn about their objects in situ, undisturbed and in their natural environment. The importance of learning where and what to look at was also stressed out, together with underwater documentary photographic skills.
