Summary
Abstract: The Laptev Sea still ranks among the less known regions of the world’s ocean. Here, we describe the distribution and composition of macrobenthic communities of the eastern shelf and identify key environmental control factors. Samples were collected from dredge catches carried out at 11 stations at depths between 17 and 44 m in August/September 1993 during the TRANSDRIFT I cruise of the Russian R/V ... View entire text

Purpose: The objectives of this study are to (1) describe the macrobenthic distribution patterns in the eastern Laptev Sea, (2) delineate macrobenthic communities by means of multivariate statistics and (3) identify key environmental factors controlling the distribution and composition of macrobenthic fauna.
