metabolically reactive organic matter near burrows. Although only ~1% of the exposed bottom is covered by large-diameter burrows, each one can influence a surrounding radius of ~ 3 cm, affecting 10-34% of the bottom. Mar. Sci. Res.

The benthic fauna of different soft substrata in the Pagassitikos Gulf (Greece). Thalassographica, 8:43-69. Relationships between a measured coarseness index estimated from percentages of sand and silt and species abundance are described and a mathematical method of classification of species according to bottom-type preference is presented.

The major groups responsible for reef breakdown (grazers, etchers, and borers), their modes of bioerosion, and observed variability in bioerosion rates are reviewed worldwide. The role of bioerosion in the determination of reef morphology is discussed. Invert. Div., Australian Mus., 6-8 College St., Sydney, NSW 2000, Australia. (gsb) 86:7015 Lambert, G. and T.D.

Print reflectances of enlarged (1:1100) aerial color infrared photographs of a southeast Queensland salt marsh varied seasonally, but similar classification types were obtained. Maximum discrimination occurred in autumn, when red reflectances were high. Sch. of Australian Environ. Studies, Griffith Univ., Nathan, Qld. 4111, Australia. (gsb) 86:7020 Stewart, B.A. and B.R.
