Note générale : |
In the early 1960's a quantitative survey of the macrobentic invertebrate fauna was conducted in the middle atlantic bight region. Purposes of this survey were top obtain a preliminary measure of the macrobenthic standing crop, particulary of biomas, and secondralily, to determine the principal taxonomic components of the fauno and the general features of their distribution. Sampling was conducted at 563 locations/ Water dephts ranged from 4 to 3,080 m. An analysis of faunal composition and of quantitative distributions from the survey is presented in this report . Quantities are expressed in terms of density and biomas . |
