Infaunal Assemblages on Constructed Intertidal Mudflats at Jonesport, Maine (USA)

摘要

Dredged materials have been used to construct two mud- flats near Jonesport, Maine (USA). A flat at Sheep Island was constructed in 1989 and along with an adjacent re- ference area (REF) has been monitored for infaunal as- semblage development and sediment texture since 1990. The second site, Beals Island, an example of a much Older constructed flat (CF), has been monitored since 1991.
