tailieunhanh - Colonisation of epipelic diatoms on the littoral sediments of Izmit bay

Seasonal variations in the composition, density and diversity of the epipelic diatom assemblages were investigated monthly from March, 1999, to September, 2000, at 8 sampling sites chosen in the littoral of Izmit Bay. The main physical and chemical parameters, which affected species composition and density, were also measured on every sampling date. | Colonisation of epipelic diatoms on the littoral sediments of Izmit bay
