Molecular identification key based on PCR/RFLP for three polychaete sibling species of the genus Marenzelleria, and the species’ current distribution in the Baltic Sea (2008, background): “The recent findings show that M. arctia may colonize even the deepest open sea areas in the Baltic Sea, except the central and southern basins, which suffer from semipermanent oxygen depletion (e.g. Laine 2003).”
Zoobenthic diversity-gradients in the Baltic Sea: Continuous post-glacial succession in a stressed ecosystem (2006, background): “, 1996; Rosenberg, 2001), with laminated sediments as one endpoint (Persson and Jonsson, 2000) and diverse benthic assemblages the other, often as a result of secondary succession after periods of hypoxia or anoxia (Laine, 2003; Rosenberg et al., 2004).”
Diversity and distribution of benthic macrofauna in the Baltic Sea Data inventory and its use for species distribution modelling and prediction (2010, unknown): “The entire soft bottom infauna is defined as poor in terms of species composition, and functional complexity is considered to be low (Andersin et al, 1978; Laine, 2003; Bonsdorff and Pearson, 1999).”
