Influence of abiotic factors in the biomass of deep water shrimps, P. longirostris and A. antennatus, off Catalano-Levantine Mediterranean coast of Spain.
Deep-water shrimps show large inter-annual fluctuations in biomass. We analysed the influence of some abiotic factors in these fluctuations using survey data (2006-2009). While P. longirostris biomass was feebly affected by the T-S of the water masses, these factors, particularly salinity, seemed to...

| Sumario: | Deep-water shrimps show large inter-annual fluctuations in biomass. We analysed the influence of some abiotic factors in these fluctuations using survey data (2006-2009). While P. longirostris biomass was feebly affected by the T-S of the water masses, these factors, particularly salinity, seemed to have a significant effect on A. antennatus a species considered to be stenothermal and stenohaline, whose biomass distribution showed a direct relationship with the Levantine Intermediate Water. |
