Variations in macrofaunal communities along sand physico-chemical gradient across the intertidal zones on island beaches

Variations in macrofaunal communities along sand physico-chemical gradient across the intertidal zones on island beaches

Island beaches, once mistakenly considered as 'ecological deserts', are actually unique ecosystems that support abundant macrofaunal communities. However, limited studies have examined the variations and determinants of macrofaunal communities across the intertidal zones on island beaches,...
