Fjords play an important role in carbon cycling and sequestration, but the burial of organic matter sediments strongly depends on composition macrobenthic communities. We studied three deep, sub-Arctic fjords located northern Norway to assess community differentiation neighbouring underlying environmental drivers. The have relatively deep depositional basins (370–570 m), they differ sill depth ...

Soft-sediment biogeochemistry is influenced by the bioturbation activity of benthic invertebrates. We investigated whether effect two macrobenthos bioturbators, Limecola balthica and Hediste diversicolor , on sediment oxygen uptake can be described allometric principles metabolic scaling with animal body size population biomass. Microcosms containing reconstructed populations to control density...

The regular assessment of faunal diversity near the energy power plant has gained interest many researchers. activity and effluent discharged from have remarkably stressed adjacent assemblage alpha biotic community surrounding plant. Hence, this study aimed to assess fishes benthos in bordering areas Tanjung Kidurong Combined Cycle Power Plant (TKCCP), Bintulu Sarawak. investigation was conduct...
