Polychaete Annelid Biomass Size Spectra: The Effects of Hypoxia Stress

Figure 3

Exponential relationship between mean body size of polychaetes and bottom oxygen concentration at each of the 64 sites (A, B, C, and AB5 in Figure 1) in all cruises. The highest three biomass mean values at 5.76 mg/L contained the bamboo worms sampled in August 2009 (see Figure 2 and text).
