Estimates of particulate organic carbon flowing from the pelagic environment to the benthos through sponge assemblages.
Despite the importance of trophic interactions between organisms, and the relationship between primary production and benthic diversity, there have been few studies that have quantified the carbon flow from pelagic to benthic environments as a result of the assemblage level activity of suspension-fe...
