Diversity and composition of macrobenthic community associated with sandy shoals of the Louisiana continental shelf ArchiMer
Dubois, Stanislas; Gelpi, Carey; Condrey, Richard E.; Grippo, Mark A.; Fleeger, John W..
Along the Louisiana, USA continental shelf, sandy shoals are shallow, possibly oxygen-rich "islands" surrounded by deeper muddy deposits prone to hypoxia. Shoals also contain significant quantities of fine sand that may be mined in the future for coastal restoration. The ecological role of shoals remains poorly understood and we hypothesized that shoals provide critical habitat for benthic invertebrates. Using Ship Shoal as a model system, we assessed the diversity and structure of macrobenthic assemblages and how community structure varies with season and environmental parameters. High biomass (averaging 26.7 g m(-2)) and high diversity (161 species) of macrobenthos was found in 2006. Polychaetes (45%-72 species) and crustaceans comprised most of the...
