Description
The composition and distribution of the macrobenthic amphipod, mollusc and polychaete fauna in the Evros Delta have been investigated. The distribution of species showed a zonation mainly related to the degree of "confinement".

Abundance Methodology
Biomass Methodology Grain size distribution Organic matter content (OM) Salinity Temperature in water Abundance: Modified Van Veen Grab As described by Kevrekidis, Th. & Koukouras, A. (1988)
The data was sampled using a modified Van Veen Grab with a surface of 400 cm² (20 X 20 cm) which penetrated to a depth of 20 cm.
Four replicates were taken at each station of which the average density and biomass were calculated. Biomass: Modified Van Veen Grab As described by Kevrekidis, Th. & Koukouras, A. (1988)
