Gross sedimentation rates (GSRs) were monitored together with meteorological data and the main biochemical characteristics of the collected material (i.e. organic content, C, N, total proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and available proteins) over a three year cycle at a shallow station (18 m) of the Bay of Banyuls, France. GSRs were between 0.26 (11/04/92) and 317.75 gDW m(-2) d(-1) (18/02/94). They followed an annual cycle with low and relatively constant values during spring and summer and high, variable Values during fall and winter. During the study GSRs correlated poorly (state of the sea, precipitation) or even non-significantly (wind speed) with the main meteorological parameters. GSRs correlated negatively with the organic content of the material... |

We measured growth rates and RNA/DNA ratios of deposit-feeding bivalves Abra ovata cultured for five months in the laboratory where they were fed on fresh detritus derived from twelve macrophytes (Rissoella verruculosa, Cystoseira mediterranea, Corallina elongata, Stypocaulon scoparium, Padina pavonica, Ulva rigida, Cystoseira compressa, Colpomenia sinuosa, Posidonia oceanica, Codium vermilara, Asparagopsis armata, and Dilophus spiralis). Growth rates and RNA/DNA ratios were significantly affected by the nature of the detritus offered. However, there was no significant (n = 65, r = 0,07) correlation between growth rates and RNA/DNA ratios. These results show that there were significant qualitative differences in the tested detritus. They suggest that the... |

The abilities of several biochemical characteristics of sedimentary organic matter to describe quantitative changes in benthic fauna were assessed based on several surveys carried out within the Gulf of Lion during the last decade. Two sets of high frequency samplings were carried out both inshore and offshore, together with an assessment of seasonal variability along a depth gradient, and a synoptic assessment of mesoscale spatial variability. The considered biochemical parameters were: total organic matter, organic carbon, nitrogen, total proteins, available proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, total and available amino acids. The considered faunal parameters were the abundance and the biomass of both meio- and macrofauna. Our results contribute to unravel... |
