摘要: A submarine pipeline, constructed in 1997–1998 to provide water Redang Island, Malaysia traverses an area covered with corals. Biological studies were conducted before and following pipeline construction monitor the changes biota at selected sites. Benthic invertebrates (including corals) used as monitoring tools. Student's t-test one-way ANOVA macroinvertebrates pre- post-construction analyses revealed that there was no significant difference total abundance of sessile periods. a mean live coral coverage during pre There apparent change numbers macroinvertebrates. Our results suggest only short-term impacts recovery benthic community.
