Sediment Bulk Density Effects on Benthic Macrofauna Burrowing and Bioturbation Behavior
Benthic macrofauna are a key component of intertidal ecosystems. Their mobility and behavior determine processes like nutrient cycling and the biogeomorphic development of intertidal flats. Many physical drivers of benthic macrofauna behavior, such as sediment grain size, have been well-studied. How...
