A bio-engineered soft-bottom environment: The impact of Lanice conchilega on the benthic species-specific densities and community structure (2007, background): “The reduced current velocities in the patches increase the residence time of particles (Friederichs et al., 2000) and thus facilitate the deposition of silt, clay and very fine sand particles as observed in this study.”
Tube worms promote community change (2006, background): “…whether they have stabilising or destabilising effects on the sediment varies between species and depends on current velocity, but in general single tubes destabilise the sediment while dense tube lawns lead to sedimentation (Eckman et al. 1981, Luckenbach 1986, Carey 1987, Friedrichs et al. 2000).”
Macrobenthic recovery from hypoxia in an estuarine tidal mudflat (2008, background): “Poly- 39 Mar Ecol Prog Ser 372: 31–42, 2008 chaete tubes exert profound effects on near-bed flow, which above a certain threshold abundance leads to sediment stabilisation where passive deposition of larvae or juveniles is enhanced (Eckman 1983, Friedrichs et al. 2000).”
Modeling bio-geomorphological influences for offshore sandwaves (2009, background): “Given the maximum density of L. conchilega found in the North Sea (3,000 ind. m-2) the near bottom velocity will reduce to 30% of the near bottom flow, relative to the default case, according to flume experiment by Friedrichs et al. (2000).”
Seabed methane emissions and the habitat of frenulate tubeworms on the Captain Arutyunov mud volcano (Gulf of Cadiz) (2009, background): “The effect of polychaete lawns on near-seabed flow dynamics has been demonstrated by Friedrichs et al. (2000), where depending on abundance, spatial arrangement and the length of tubes extending into the water column, the bottom water flow can be strongly decelerated, resulting in a skimming flow…”
Benthic community-mediated sediment dynamics (2008, methodology): “This RD value corresponds to RD values at and above which flow attenuation and net deposition of sediment took place in the work of Friedrichs et al. (2000).”
