Coarse to fine-sand sediments characterize shallow sublittoral soft bottoms in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea. Within framework of a wider research project on littoral ecosystem Bay Blanes (Catalan coast), dynamics soft-bottom macroinfaunal assemblages have been followed since March 1992. These exhibited highly predictive annual cycle. Abundance and biomass rose sharply during spring, by striking drop through summer, reaching lowest values winter. cycles were consistent with temporal...
Abstract Sampling of sublittoral macroalgal assemblages was carried out in 1982 and 1999 along the coast Catalonia (Northwestern Mediterranean, Spain) order to study long-term changes species composition. Ordination analysis revealed significant differences composition abundance between two periods. The number stations with indicators eutrophication, such as Chaetomorpha , Cladophora Ulva decreased from 1999. This decrease not balanced by an increase typical pristine environments, large...

Abstract Macroinvertebrate communities inhabiting shallow sandy bottoms from C atalonia and B alearic I slands coastal waters ( W estern M editerranean) were used to develop the Mediterranean Occidental MEDOCC ) index, a new methodology assess ecological status ES according Water Framework Directive WFD requirements. The dominance pattern of four groups EG ; sensitive, indifferent, tolerant opportunistic organisms) was studied along disturbance gradient. Sensitive taxa present in disturbed...
Abstract This study describes the spatial distribution and trophic structure of polychaetes inhabiting soft-bottoms Alfacs Bay, a semi-enclosed, shallow-water area (Ebro Delta, north-western Mediterranean). The hydrographic regime is basically marine, with combination sea-water renewal continental runoff causing permanent stratification. Bay was affected by anthropogenic activities (viz. influx irrigation waters, large-scale aquaculture, periodical dredging at mouth). 41 samples were taken...
