Temporal and Spatial Variations of Bacterial and Faunal Communities Associated with Deep-Sea Wood Falls.
Sinking of large organic food falls i.e. kelp, wood and whale carcasses to the oligotrophic deep-sea floor promotes the establishment of locally highly productive and diverse ecosystems, often with specifically adapted benthic communities. However, the fragmented spatial distribution and small area...
