Assessing benthic health of hard substratum macrobenthic community using soft bottom indicators and their relationship with environmental condition
This study aimed to assess ecological quality status of hard substratum macroinvertebrates communities of the Caspian Sea with three ecological indices and their relation with environmental factors. For this purpose benthic communities of the Caspian Sea basin were studied seasonally during 2014 in 8 sampling sites. Temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, nitrate, nitrite, silicate and pho...
متن کاملAssessing the Classification Indices of Ecological Quality Status Using Benthic Macrofauna Identification in Gorgan Bay
The present study was conducted for the first time to investigate and identify the ecological quality status (EcoQ) of Gorgan Bay and also to emphasize the degree of agreement between the results of different benthic macrofauna indices, introduction of appropriate index and utilization of basic results in environmental management programs in the region. To do, 22 sites were selected and macrobe...

متن کاملAssessing Chlorophyll-a in the Southwestern Coastal Waters of the Caspian Sea
Caspian Sea with an average depth of 27m is the largest enclosed water body in the world. Despite its enormity and valuable biotic and economic resources, investigations on the biota and seawater properties are mosaic at best. In previous studies, the monitoring of the chlorophyll-a concentrations in the Southern Caspian Sea was organized based on satellite data sets however, vertical dis...
متن کاملEutrophication and trophic status using different indices: A study in the Iranian coastal waters of the Caspian Sea
The aim of this study is to assess the eutrophication and trophic status based on different indices and also reference threshold values in the Iranian coastal waters of the southern Caspian Sea (ICWSCS). The water samples (three replicates) were collected along four transects (off the coast from Anzali, Tonekabon, Nowshahr and Amirabad) between spring 2013 and winter 2014. The results show mark...
