Bioturbation in the Venice Lagoon: Rates and relationship to organisms
Experiments were carried out during autumn 1998 and spring 1999 at four selected sites in the Venice Lagoon in order to estimate the major bioturbation modes, and for quantitative analysis of the contribution of various taxa to these modes. Fluorescent sediment particles (63–350 mm) were supplied as a tracer pulse input at the sediment surface. Tracer depth profiles obtained after 15 and 20 day...
متن کاملInfluence of benthic macrofauna community shifts on ecosystem functioning in shallow estuaries
*Correspondence: Erik Kristensen, Department of Biology, University of Southern Denmark, Campusvej 55, 5230 Odense, Denmark e-mail: [email protected] We aim at identifying how ecosystem functioning in shallow estuaries is affected by rapid shifts in benthic fauna communities. We use the shallow estuary, Odense Fjord, Denmark, as a case study to test our hypotheses that (1) shifts in benthic fa...
متن کاملOpen Archive Toulouse Archive Ouverte (oatao) Effects of Population Density on the Sediment Mixing Induced by the Gallery-diffusor Hediste (nereis) Diversicolor O.f. Müller, 1776
The aim of this work was to quantify the intensity of sediment mixing induced by the gallery-diffusor (functional bioturbation group) Hediste diversicolor as a function of density, using particles tracers (luminophores). In order to assess the impact of density on sediment reworking, a 1-D model was used to obtain sediment reworking coefficients such as Db (biodiffusion-like) and r (biotranspor...
متن کاملSpecies-specific effect of macrobenthic assemblages on meiobenthos and nematode community structure in shallow sandy sediments
Three functionally different macrofaunal species (the filter- and/or surface deposit-feeding polychaete Hediste diversicolor, and the suspension-feeding bivalves Mya arenaria and Cerastoderma glaucum) were introduced as single- and two-species treatments into microcosms containing sandy sediment with a natural meiofaunal community. H. diversicolor is a burrowing species building a system of gal...
متن کاملImaging oxygen distribution in marine sediments. The importance of bioturbation and sediment heterogeneity.
The influence of sediment oxygen heterogeneity, due to bioturbation, on diffusive oxygen flux was investigated. Laboratory experiments were carried out with 3 macrobenthic species presenting different bioturbation behaviour patterns: the polychaetes Nereis diversicolor and Nereis virens, both constructing ventilated galleries in the sediment column, and the gastropod Cyclope neritea, a burrowin...
