title in English
An experimental approach to study epi-and infauna of mangrove forests in Gazi Bay (Kenya) between August 1992 and July 1993
Description in English
Study of epifauna and infauna in a mangrove forest in Kenya and its influence on the ecosystem with the use of cages to measure epibenthic species.
Abstract in English
Meiobenthos densities and abiotic parameters measured during a cage experiment in an Avicennia marina and Ceriops tagal forest sampled between August 1992 and July 1993. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Schrijvers, J. (1996). Interactions between epifauna and infauna in a Kenyan mangrove forest: an experimental approach = Interacties tussen epifauna en infauna in een Kenyaans mangrovewoud: een experimentele benadering. PhD Thesis. Universiteit Gent: Gent. XI, 139 + annexes pp.
