摘要: Meiofauna samples from intertidal sediments of Qingdao No.2 Bathing Beach, China, were collected for field study, and subjected to organic enrichment in a laboratory microcosm experiment 21 d. There three different treatments including non-organic addition as the control, low-organic (2 g DW green algae per 150 mL) high-organic (10 mL). After d, meiofauna richness decreased both treatments. Among treatments, total abundance was significantly different, control groups had higher than other two treatment groups. However, responses non-significantly different. The relationship meiofaunal nematode/copepod ratios matter oxygen level experiments discussed.
