Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
| Objectives
1. Describe the objectives of the RMP as clearly as possible in a numbered list: 2. To assess large-scale meiobenthic biodiversity patterns in European marine waters 3. To identify the structuring factors of meiobenthic assemblages on a large geographical scale vs. the importance of locally varying variables within habitat type or limited geographical area 4. To assess the role of anthropogenic drivers (e.g. various types of disturbance) for differences in large-scale meiobenthic distribution patterns 5. To test the performance of functional attributes of nematode assemblages in assessing the potential effects of anthropogenic and natural disturbances on benthic systems 6. To gain insight in meiobenthic species assembly rules to increase the understanding of the high diversity within meiofaunal taxa 7. To assess the “universal response” of meiobenthos to physical or chemical disturbances by integrating completed and ongoing experimental research at the partner institutes. 8. To design and execute collaborative experiments to link meiobenthic activities to ecosystem processes. 9. To set up an integrated identification support tool for European nematode species 10. To share methods on meiobenthic research within the MarBEF community by organising a training workshop on sampling and processing methodology 11. To increase the public awareness of the diversity and functioning of the meiobenthos in European marine environments Description of work Task 1. Data Collection, Integration and Management. Task 2. Spatial and temporal patterns in European marine meiobenthos Task 3. Taxonomic basis of meiobentic biodiversity Task 4. Linking ecosystem processes with meiobenthic activities Task 5. Outreach |
