Effects of hypoxia on animal burrow construction and consequent effects on sediment redox profiles

We conducted a laboratory experiment to investigate the effects of mild hypoxia on the burrowing behavior of three marine species (the hard clam Mercenaria mercenaria, the polychaete worm Neanthes virens, and the amphipod Leptocheirus plumulosus) and consequent effects on sediment redox profiles. An...
