Interdependence of environmental parameters and sand dwelling benthic species abundance: a multivariate approach
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1991)
Multivariate analysis showed dependence of distribution and abundance of sand dwelling fauna on more than one ecologically significant environmental parameters rather than one ecological master factor. Salinity, grain size, ...
