Benthic–pelagic coupling studies have shown that the response of benthic system to eutrophication is subject complex nonlinear dynamics with specific thresholds beyond which abrupt changes in ecosystem occur and time lags between inputs responses. The “HYPOXIA: regime shifts ” project aimed investigate how nutrient input water column results ecological processes eutrophication, may lead signifi...

Soil fauna is an essential component of the soil ecosystem for maintaining nutrient cycling and biological fertility. This study assessed biodiversity (macrofauna, mesofauna, microfauna) to define strategies sustainable management tropical agricultural soils. The was carried out in 200 production units Department Sucre, northern Colombia. Physicochemical properties (organic matter, nitrogen, ph...

Biogenic reefs provide important ecological functions and services to coastal marine environments, supplying high levels of biodiversity, providing refuge foraging habitat, supporting fisheries. Serpulid are a relatively uncommon habitat in ecosystems globally that for diverse community organisms, have become target conservation management efforts due degradation loss. Baffin Bay, Texas, USA, i...

Offshore Wind Farms (OWFs) in the English Channel and along coast of Normandy (France) will be installed on coarse sediments, which cover about 80% seabed Channel. A BACI (Before After Control Impact) approach has been recommended by French State for each these OWFs. This provides opportunity to acquire macrofauna data assess Ecological Quality Status areas that are poorly sampled. In case Diep...
