چکیده
Abstract During the research cruise MSM 14/1 of RV M.S. MERIAN to eastern Mediterranean Eratosthenes Seamount in 2009/2010, samples were taken with a multiple corer get first insights into composition, abundance, and diversity meiofauna. Along two transects, north–south west–east ones, 14 sites sampled on seamount. Additionally, distant deep-sea site provided meiobenthic material for comparison that Altogether, 15 major taxa found. Nematoda Copepoda Harpacticoida strongly dominated all sites, followed by Annelida Tardigrada at most sites. Although direct pointed towards northern seamount community, this could not be confirmed detailed community analysis regarding abundance expressed density (ind./10 cm 2 ), diversity. It revealed neither homogeneous nor any faunistic relation bathymetric or geographic gradients, exception apparently latitudinal gradient. Generally, presents quite heterogeneous assemblage may linked small-scale biotic abiotic variables. Moreover, also reference did differ significantly from A brief other Atlantic seamounts islands indicates is characterized an impoverished fauna.

The first of two tectonic-oriented objectives during Leg 160 in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea (April–May, 1995) was concerned with study of processes of genesis and incipient collision of the Eratosthenes Seamount, a substantial crustal feature, with the active margin of the Eurasian plate to the north, represented by southern Cyprus. The upper part of the Eratosthenes Seamount (upper several h...
