Spatial distribution of the macrobenthic fauna in Laki Lagoon (Evros Delta, N. Aegean Sea) Citation Mogias, A & Kevrekidis, T; Spatial distribution of the macrobenthic fauna in Laki Lagoon (Evros Delta, N. Aegean Sea); Democritus University of Thrace; Department of Primary Education. Http://www.vliz.be/imis/imis.php?module=dataset&dasid=2972. https://marineinfo.org/doc/dataset/2972 Contact: Athanasios, Mogias Availability: ![]() Description The dataset contains biotic data from different stations in the Laki lagoon in the Ervos Delta in Southeast Greece. It contains presence/absence data for 15 species at stations in september 1997. more The macrobenthic fauna in the outer part of the Laki lagoon was characterized by a higher diversity and the occurrence of both lagoonal and marine species, and in the innermost part by a higher total abundance and the occurrence of a few lagoonal species. The combination of distance from the sea, depth, salinity and sediment organic matter correlated best with the spatial distribution pattern of the macrofauna. A number of datarecords are uncertain, and are therefore not included in Eurobis.
