• A critical habitat for Mediterranean fish resources: shelf-break areas with Leptometra phalangium (Echinodermata: Crinoidea) (2004, background): “A strong reduction in L. phalangium and other echinoderms was observed in trawled areas, along with a decrease in the richness, abundance and biomass of benthic species (Smith et al. 2000).”
• Effects of chronic bottom trawling disturbance on benthic biomass, production and size spectra in different habitats (2006, result): “In an experimental trawl impact study the number of Amphiura filiformis that occurred in a trawling lane was much lower than in an adjacent control area, while the sediments were similar (Smith et al., 2000).”
