Benthic Infauna in the Shallow-Water Hydrothermal System of Banderas Bay, Mexico: A Two-Period Comparison

Benthic Infauna in the Shallow-Water Hydrothermal System of Banderas Bay, Mexico: A Two-Period Comparison

At a depth of approximately 9 m off the coast of Banderas Bay, hydrothermal activity occurs through various seabed vents, discharging liquids and gases that reach temperatures of up to 89 °C and pH values lower than the surrounding seawater. This study examines the composition of the benthic infauna...
