Changes in Metabolic Rates Under Fluctuating Salinity Regimes for Two Subtidal Estuarine Habitats
Farris CN and Oviatt CA. 1999. Changes in Metabolic Rates Under Fluctuating Salinity Regimes for Two Subtidal Estuarine Habitats. Estuaries. 22(1):126-137
'This study examined the response of metabolic rates in two subtidal habitats to fluctuating salinity regimes.' 'Report on an effort to quantify the metabolic rates of habitats by measuring production and respiration rates for macroalgal and sediment habitats at three different salinity levels. The study site was in the lower basin of the Bass Harbor Marsh system in Acadia National Park. The discussion section of the report includes 'Habitat metabolism and water column oxygen concentrations'.
