Hence, habitats within estuaries function as critical nursery areas for a variety of fish species. Results from stomach content analysis and dietary diatom composition of a ubiquitous estuarine-dependent species Rhabdosargus holubi (Steindachner, 1881) in the main vegetated and un-vegetated habitats in...
Some of examples are: marine lakes, submerged caves and pits, submarine freshwater springs, highly stratified salt-wedge karstic estuaries, etc. Such restricted systems are very sensitive to the human influence. The living organisms in each of them have certain peculiarities as a result of ...

Given the importance of this type of flow and for the convergence of the applied concepts in these studies in Brisbane declaration8, the quantity, time, and quality of the required water flow for the sustainability of river ecosystems and estuaries9 were known as e-flow. This definition ...

2011). This design enabled a cross-system comparison approach in which subestuaries/coastal bays were the units of replication for evaluating relationships of faunal abundances with watershed land cover and cumulative shoreline condition. Fish and crustacean abundance data were from a composite of six ...
