The western slope is an underwater delta front area with, at least intermittently, strong bottom currents transporting suspended organic and inorganic particles. In the deeper parts, currents slow down and accumulation is extremely high (mean ≈90 mm·y<sup>−1</sup>). The benthic community on the western slope was dominated by the passive suspension-feeding brittle star <em>Amphiura filiformis</em>. Its numbers and biomass were much larger than recorded in the Skagerrak and the North Sea. Total community abundance and number of species were significantly larger on the western slope than on the eastern. In the deep part of the trench significantly higher abundance and number of species were recorded than on the slopes.

The extreme densities and biomasses recorded on the western slope suggest that these communities were limited by space rather than by food. In contrast, similar communities characterized by <em>A. filiformis</em> in the Skagerrak and the North Sea have significantly lower abundance and biomass, and are therefore thought to be food limited.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100948,"journal":{"name":"Netherlands Journal of Sea Research","volume":"34 4","pages":"Pages 303-317"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0077-7579(95)90040-3","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72111996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
