The use of meiofauna in freshwater sediment assessments: Structural and functional responses of meiobenthic communities to metal and organics contamination
Abstract
Because soft sediments are often hotspots of chemical contamination, their assessment can aid in identifying the causes of environmental stress and the implementation of measures to improve the health of the respective ecosystems. Achieving a “good ecological status” of surface waters, as required by the European Water Framework Directive, strongly depends on recognition of the chemical status of sediments. Meiobenthic organisms are important,...
