The structure of an arctic shallow water benthic community : effects of ice gouging

Creator:

Abstract:

The shallow water benthic habitat of the SW Beaufort Sea is frequently gouged by the keels of ice pressure ridges. This natural physical disturbance was hypothesized to be an important factor affecting the structure of the benthic community. Smith-McIntyre grab samples were taken from three discrete gouge axes and from...
