Abstract
    In order to assess the effects of the execution of the Delta Project, the sessile sublittoral communities on hard substrates in the Oosterschelde estuary and the environmental parameters were quantitatively investigated from 1985 till 1990. During the construction period of the barrier, three communities were sampled in the photic zone and four in the aphotic zone. The distribution of the communities in the photic zone seemed to be determined by the exposition to water movement and depth, while the communities in the aphotic zone were restricted to geographic areas, with differences in tidal current velocities: the mouth of the estuary, the Hammen, the central part and the Zijpe. Two years after the completion of the enclosure works, the community structure changed rapidly, caused by decreases of tidal current velocities, increases of the amounts of sedimentation, especially of fine sediments, and an increase of the transparency of the water. Changes within the associated vagile animals showed the same tendency as the sessile communities: under less exposed conditions the number of organisms remained the same or increased, while at some locations this increase was nullified by increasing amounts of sedimentation.
