Macrobenthic Succession in Relation to Organic Enrichment and Pollution of The Marine Environment
The most universal of environmental disturbances which may be looselytermed 'marine pollution' and perhaps the best documented is that of theorganic 'enrichment' of marine waters. The aim of this review is to establishthe present state of our knowledge of changes in benthic communities broughtabout by such enrichment.
