The study was made for macrozoobenthos of bottom sediments filling spaces between rocks. Four bays influenced by the anthropogenic factors of different intensity are compared with the open sea coast. Bottom sediments belong to carbonate organic debris sand ones and are characterized by the large size grains, low natural humidity (less than 40%), positive redox potential, weak alkali environmental reaction, relatively low accumulation of allochthonic substances. As compared with fine-grained bottom sediments of the same regions they are inhabited by a richer, as to species and quantity, macrozoobenthos represented mainly by sestonophages. The anthropogenic influence increases the content of ammonium nitrogen and chloroform-soluble substance bottom sediments... |
