Abstract Earth's ecological dynamics are largely rhythmic, tied to regular cycles such as seasons, lunar phases, days, or tides. Subdisciplines of ecology such as phenology have developed specific concepts and metrics adapted to describe and analyze cyclical dynamics, but they operate in a largely unidimensional framework.

Study on pollution indices based on biological characteristics of macrobenthos in the southern Caspian Sea (2018-2019) [PDF]
The aims of the present study were to investigate the macrobenthos communities in the Caspian Sea and to investigate the pollution of this ecosystem based on the pollution indices ABC (Abundance Biomass Comparison), BC (Biotic Coefficient) and ABC curve ...

Effects of Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum culture on the macrobenthic community
Macrobenthic bioturbation affects the environment, and variances in habitat, such as decreased dissolved oxygen concentration and increased ammonia concentration, affects the macrobenthic community.

Allochthonous Leaves as a Substrate for Macrobenthos
ABSTRACT The macroinvertebrates of a freshwater canal were analyzed for differentiation of community structure between leaf packs made of water oak, loblolly pine, sweetgum, bald cypress, and black willow. The community responded differently to the various leaf species when tested at the functional feeding and taxa levels.

Latitudinal Gradients of Species Richness in Marine Benthos: Insights From Japan's Tidal Flat Areas
Latitudinal diversity gradients in species richness were observed in the coasts of Japan. Extensive tidal flats and biogeographical connectivity to the Eurasian Continent may cause the unexpected peak in species diversity at the Kyushu region. Mollusca was the dominant taxonomic group, followed by Malacostraca, Annelida, and other benthic groups ...

Species Diversity and Community Structure of Macrobenthos in the Cosmonaut Sea, East Antarctica
The Cosmonaut Sea is an under-studied area and a “white spot” for macrobenthos research. Here, we report on the species diversity and community structure of macrobenthos collected using tringle trawls on the 38th Chinese National Antarctic Research ...

The endangered tri‐spine horseshoe crab (Tachypleus tridentatus), a “living fossil” crucial to coastal ecology and biomedical research, is experiencing severe population declines. Effective conservation requires efficient monitoring, which traditional methods cannot deliver at scale. We develop an integrated UAV deep learning framework tailored to this

STRUCTURE AND DISTRIBUTION OF MACROBENTHOS IN THE SUBLITTORAL ZONE OF THE VLADIMIR BAY, JAPAN SEA
Bottom substrates and structure and distribution of macrobenthos in the sublittoral zone of the Vladimir Bay (northwestern Japan Sea) were surveyed in July 2012 and 2014. The substrates were identified and their spatial patterns were described.
