Meiofauna matters: The roles of meiofauna in benthic ecosystems

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2018
Sedimentary habitats cover most of the ocean bottom and therefore constitute the largest single ecosystem on Earth in spatial coverage. The benthic ecosystem contributes to human well-being by providing essential services such as food production and nutrient cycling.

The effects of meiofauna on settling macrofauna: meiofauna may structure macrofaunal communities

Oecologia, 1983
When macrofaunal larvae and juveniles recruit into the benthos, they are in the same size catagory as the meiofauna. These small size classes have been consistently ignored in macrofaunal studies despite the increasingly accepted idea that communities are structured not only by interactions between adults, but also by interactions which occurred when ...

Aerobic Microbes and Meiofauna

1981
Heterotrophic microorganisms in a detritus-based salt-marsh system are a major link in the mineralization and transformation of organic matter. The biomass and activity of heterotrophic microorganisms in the salt-marsh estuary at Sapelo Island have been examined with regard to both habitat and metabolic rotes.

Macrofauna Promotes Meiofauna

1985
Promotion is any process between species where one of them is of benefit to the others without being harmed in return. Prevailing concepts of community organization emphasize repressive or limiting interactions, such as predation and competition. Promotive interactions are hardly ever mentioned.

Meiofauna-Macrofauna Interactions: I. Sand Beach Meiofauna Affected by Maturing Limulus Eggs

Chesapeake Science, 1976
Differential aggregation of meiofauna was associated with the presence of maturingLimulus eggs in a Roosevelt Inlet, Delaware, beach. Nematodes, gastrotrichs, oligochaetes and rotifers increased, whereas harpacticoid copepods, tardigrades and megalops larvae decreased; ostracods, turbellarians and nauplius larvae remained constant.

Biological Characteristics of Meiofauna

1993
The heterogeneity of meiofauna biotopes outlined above explains why there are only few morphological adaptations of general validity for the diverse meiofauna. It is in the interstitial system of medium and coarse sands that the mesopsammic fauna displays the most clearly adaptive features related to this peculiar environment. The formative constraints
