TL;DR: The distribution and abundance of littoral ascidians were analyzed with respect to the possible relationships with environmental stress and some species, such as Ciona intestinalis, could be categorized as species very sensitive to stress, as well as ind~cators of good conditions.

TL;DR: The distributional pattern of the sponges (based on the relative abundance matrix) was correlated with the environmental vanables by matchlng sample simllanties uslng the Spearman rank correlatlon thus showing that the variable combination that bestexplains the patterns of distribution is hydrodynamlsm/organlc matter.

TL;DR: In this paper, a spatial distribution of the caprellid community associated with the alga Cystoseira usneoides (L.) Roberts 1967 was studied on a spatial scale in relation to the influence of environmental factors on the coast of Ceuta (North Africa) using multivariate analyses.

TL;DR: The effects of organic effluents both inside and outside the Saladillo Harbour (Algeciras, southern Spain) are investigated in this article, where a clear gradient of decreasing pollution levels was observed from the interior to the exterior of the harbour, reflected both in physicochemical water and sediment parameters and in their respective microbiological parameters.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial variation of the arthropod communities of the alga Halopteris scoparia in relation to the influence of environmental factors in the Algeciras Bay (Southern Spain) was investigated by means of multivariate analyses.
