Macrofaunal assemblages were studied along bathymetric transects in six canyons and four adjacent open slopes of the Mediterranean Sea. The different areas investigated were located approximately along a longitudinal gradient at similar latitudes. Three regions were investigated: the Catalan (from 334 to 1887 m depth), the Ligurian (from 222 to...

The distribution of anthropogenic microparticles (Mps), such as plastic and natural fibres used in textiles, in beach sediments was studied in a human-influenced pocket beach in Liguria (NW Mediterranean Sea). Information on environmental parameters such as rainfall, hydrodynamic characteristics and sediment texture was collected at the same...
