Means of meiofauna dispersal
Meiofauna dispersal is possible by waterfowl, by floating substrates including sea ice, and by turbulent water, either in suspension or adhering to sediment particles. During severe storms sea water turbulence erodes sediments not only in shallow water, but also in the sublittoral region. In the pas...

Meiofauna dispersal is possible by waterfowl, by floating substrates including sea ice, and by turbulent water, either in suspension or adhering to sediment particles. During severe storms sea water turbulence erodes sediments not only in shallow water, but also in the sublittoral region.
