1. Trophic ecology of meiofauna : Response to sedimentation of phytoplankton blooms in the Baltic Sea
Sammanfattning : Marine soft sediments are the second largest habitat on Earth. How animal communities in this habitat are structured is a central issue in marine ecology. Food is an important limiting factor for many benthic populations, and settling organic matter from phytoplankton blooms is of vital importance to them. LÄS MER
2. The benthic meiofauna of three coastal areas : structure, seasonal dynamics and response to environmental perturbations
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. Control factors of the marine nitrogen cycle : The role of meiofauna, macrofauna, oxygen and aggregates
Sammanfattning : The ocean is the most extended biome present on our planet. Recent decades have seen a dramatic increase in the number and gravity of threats impacting the ocean, including discharge of pollutants, cultural eutrophication and spread of alien species. LÄS MER
4. Microbenthos under Pressure : Impacts of human activities on bacteria and meiofauna communities in Baltic soft sediments
Sammanfattning : The marine benthic zone is one of the largest habitats on the planet, harbouring a large diversity of life that underpin many important ecological processes. However, these habitats have been under growing stress from human activities, profoundly altering their living communities. LÄS MER
5. Assessing Sub-Lethal Impacts of Petroleum Compounds on Marine Benthic Systems
Sammanfattning : Petroleum and its different distillates commonly end up in the marine environment. One source of these additions is discharges originating from shipping activities; accidents, ship wrecks, operational spills etc. LÄS MER
