Biodiversity on the Rocks: Macrofauna Inhabiting Authigenic Carbonate at Costa Rica Methane Seeps.

TL;DR: The substrate and nutritional heterogeneity introduced by authigenic seep carbonates act to promote diverse, uniquely adapted assemblages, even after seepage ceases, demonstrating the significant role of carbonate rocks in promoting diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species diversity in the soft-bottom intertidal zone: Biogenic structure, sediment, and macrofauna across mussel bed spatial scales

TL;DR: The results show that biogenic structure in the form of live mussels and mussel shell hash is important in this system, as is terrestrial gravel, and that these variables are more important than silt-clay content for the macrofaunal assemblage.
