Organisms in the deep sea rely on gravity flows to lay down sediment and then make burrows beneath the seafloor, according to a new study.

We used equatorial glacier-fed streams as a model system to investigate the relationships between flow fluctuation and benthic fauna at different temporal scales. Water level was measured at 30 min ...

Pockmarks are one of the most obvious and abundant structural features of the North Sea seabed, yet their influence on fauna is virtually unknown. We report the distribution of benthic megafaunal ...

And on the whole, the main cause of the bloom and the release of toxins that led to the death of benthic animals is Karenia spp. There was a rather high concentration of it documented," Adrianov said.

The Scripps Institution of Oceanography Benthic Invertebrate Collection (SIO-BIC) is an active research repository housing 71,000+ lots, representing 1,000,000+ specimens and 7,600+ species from ...
