Sedimentation is one of the main disturbance factors influencing benthic communities and coastal reef organisms through a variety of mechanisms. In Chilean Patagonia, rising anthropogenic intrusions such as coastal road projects and aquaculture installations threaten the local biodiversity causing i...

Sedimentation is one of the main disturbance factors influencing benthic communities and coastal reef organisms through a variety of mechanisms. In Chilean Patagonia, rising anthropogenic intrusions such as coastal road projects and aquaculture installations threaten the local biodiversity causing increased sedimentation with even more to be expected.

The present study aimed to describe physiological and behavioural stress responses of P. chilensis to increased sedimentation.
