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...
Growth of the echinoid Sphaerechinus granularis from Gleiian Islands (Brittany, France) was studied by analysis growth zones in longitudinal cross-sections interambulacral oral plates. The diameter-at-age data pairs were increased using a back-calculation technique, which allows for more efficient estimation von Bertalanffy curve parameters. annual value skeletal marks agreed with population's size-frequency distributions taken previous study. Significant differences and morphological...
In Mediterranean rocky shores, the black sea urchin
The aim of the study is to describe macrofaunal composition marine soft bottom habitats on Catalan coast between a depth 3 and 35 meters, considering all groups macroinvertebrates. also aims compare our data with previous studies focused NW Mediterranean define variables that drive assemblage composition. Depending species structure assemblages, six different habitats, mainly defined by sediment granulometry, are described. Shallow (<20 m) deep (>20 easily distinguished subdivided in...
Eutrophication is a major threat to aquatic ecosystems because excessive nutrient enrichment may result in biodiversity loss, profound functional changes and reduction of ecosystem services. Unless several water quality indexes have been developed following the implementation EU Water Framework Directive (WFD), there still room for improvement. In particular, stress-tolerant articulated red coralline alga Ellisolandia elongata (=Corallina elongata) dominant wide range environmental...
