The importance of benthic–pelagic coupling for marine ecosystem functioning in a changing world
Benthic–pelagic coupling is manifested as the exchange of energy, mass, or nutrients
between benthic and pelagic habitats. It plays a prominent role in aquatic ecosystems, and it …

Physical disturbance by bottom trawling suspends particulate matter and alters biogeochemical processes on and near the seafloor
Bottom trawling is known to affect benthic faunal communities but its effects on sediment
suspension and seabed biogeochemistry are less well described. In addition, few studies …
