Key Bioturbator Species Within Benthic Communities Determine Sediment Resuspension Thresholds

Abundant research has shown that macrobenthic species are able to increase sediment erodibility through bioturbation. So far, however, this has been at the level of individual species. Consequently, we lack understanding on how such species effects act on the level of bioturbator communities. We ass...
