Macrobenthic Communities of the Norfolk Disposal Site. I.
Abstract
The macrobenthic infaunal community of the Norfolk Disposal Site can be characterized as a highly diverse community typical of undisturbed areas on the inner continental shelf of the Mid-Atlantic Bight which does not support any significant populations of commercially important macroinvertebrates. Analysis of seasonal and year to year trends in various community and species parameters indicates the need for continual updating of the baseline data set to avoid erroneous conclusions from future monitoring studies.
