Abstract Our study aimed to identify possible relationships between the structure of benthic macrofauna and intense use vehicles in Cassino Beach. Physical changes sediment were identified, with high compaction sector most affected by vehicles, especially during summer. The was significantly lower densities observed impacted sector, mainly summer, unlike control where higher pre‐summer We concluded that vehicle traffic physical environment beach consequently affects community face this...
Unlike the majority of nudibranchs, Glaucidae lives adrift at sea surface within Tropical and Subtropical ocean basins, feeding on cnidarians or using them to attach their egg strings as a reproductive strategy. The latitudinal distribution Glaucus atlanticus throughout Brazilian Province is influenced by Brazil current and, in its austral limit, seasonal shifts Convergence Zone (especially under influence ENSO El Niño events). Once over shelf, wind patterns meteorological events can force...
This study aimed to identify the perception of beach users about problem marine litter, and characterize them from socioeconomic point view. To this, 43 open questionnaires were conducted with Curva da Jurema Ilha do Boi beaches, in Vitória, Espírito Santo, southeastern Brazil. From view, our results showed that there no significant differences between two beaches. With respect interviewees a high level knowledge this issue, knowing what proper disposal litter they produce should be damage...
Sandy beaches are the main recreational ecosystems of world, enabling high ecological impacts, especially on benthic macrofauna, which inhabit sandy matrix and have a low capacity locomotion. Cassino Beach, located in southern Brazil, has intense vehicle traffic during summer, so purpose this study was to evaluate impact vehicles key species Amarilladesma mactroides Donax hanleyanus. For purpose, samplings were performed three sectors beach (High Impact, Moderate Impact Control) six periods...
