Temporal Variation in Rocky Intertidal Gastropods of the Qeshm Island in the Persian Gulf
Gastropod assemblages were investigated along intertidal rocky shore in the Qeshm Island in the northern Persian Gulf. Monthly sampling was undertaken from May 2007 to April 2008. Environmental factors were also measured in each site. A total of 28 gastropod taxa belonging to 15 families were identified and Cerithiidae was the most abundant family and Cerithium caeruleum was the most abundant...

متن کاملSpatio-temporal variability in Mediterranean rocky shore microphytobenthos
Knowledge of spatio-temporal variability of assemblages is the first step in identifying key factors affecting the abundance and distribution of organisms. Despite a long history of ecological studies on rocky intertidal habitats, there is still a lack of basic knowledge about the microphytobenthic components. We investigated the spatio-temporal variability of microphytobenthos in the northwest...
متن کاملVariation in Food Web Connectivity across Intertidal Gradients in Embayment and Fluvially-dominated Estuaries
Despite suggestions that extensive mixing and large-scale transport of organic matter occurs within estuarine systems and across fluvial-estuarine-coastal ecotones (Teal 1962, Odum 1980), more recent evidence in estuarine detritus-based food web systems has shown strong gradients in the sources of organic matter assimilated by consumers across diverse fluvial-estuarine-coastal ocean scales (Pet...
متن کاملSpatio-Temporal Variation of Suspended Sediment Concentration at Downstream of a Sand Mine
The growing population led to greater human need to use natural resources such as sand and gravel mines. Direct removal of sands from the bed river leads to increase suspended sediment concentrations in downstream of harvested area and creates other problems viz. filling reservoirs, change in hydraulic characteristics of the channel and environmental damages. However, the range of temporal and ...
