Effect of the spionid polychaete Boccardia syrtis on the distribution and survival of juvenile Macomona liliana (Bivalvia: Tellinacea)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined how the tellinid Macomona liliana (Iredale) survived after exposure to Te Tau bank sediments with and without the spionid tube-mat for 1 mo in still water conditions, and how they responded when given a choice of different sediment/tube-mat treatments in moving water.

Effects of substrate selection and post-settlement survival on recruitment success of the thalassinidean shrimp Neotrypaea californiensis to intertidal shell and mud habitats

TL;DR: Recruitment patterns may be further modified by postsettlement mortality of YOY shrimp in shell due to YOY Dungeness crab predation, and dense coverage of epibenthic shell applied to the intertidal site reduced recruitment of ghost shrimp.

Application of non-linear quantile regression to macrozoobenthic species distribution modelling: comparing two contrasting basins

TL;DR: A univariate application of non- linear quantile regression is proposed to account for heteroskedasticity and non-linearity in the biological response to sediment grain size in 2 neighboring but differing temperate coastal ecosystems.

The distribution of juvenile benthic invertebrates in an arctic glacial fjord

TL;DR: It is revealed that hydrographic factors are more responsible for the structuring of the benthic juvenile community at the shallow stations close to the glacier (except the station directly at the glacier), while at the outer deeper stations, sediment grain size and related properties may play a more important role.

Influence of an Antarctic waste dump on recruitment to nearshore marine soft-sediment assemblages

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that contaminants in marine sediments adjacent to the waste dump at Casey Station may be having an environmental impact and changes in recruitment and differences in soft-sediment assemblages are assessed.
