Assessing the suitability of a range of benthic indices in the evaluation of environmental impact of fin and shellfish aquaculture located in sites across Europe (2009, unknown): “In the specific case of mussel farms, recent studies have shown impact gradientswhenusingbenthic indices, butwhen thesewere comparedwith results from the reference sites the differences were not significant (Callier et al., 2008).”
Influence of suspended and off-bottom mussel culture on the sea bottom and benthic habitats: a review. (2011, background): “For example, Callier et al. (2008) observed that communities in a sample station directly below mussel lines were characterized by a lower abundance of organisms than those from stations 3 to 300 m distant, that species richness increased along the transect studied, and that infaunal biomass was…”
Indicators for Sea-floor Integrity under the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive (2012, background): “Some of the indicators (AMBI, M-AMBI) have been widely (e.g. Cai et al., 2003; Muniz et al., 2005; Afli et al., 2008; Bigot et al., 2008; Borja et al., 2008; Callier et al., 2008; Josefson et al., 2008; Bakalem et al., 2009), but their most extensive use is in Europe.”
