It will proceed to present an overview of the current knowledge on the meiobenthos of the area of concern and will discuss general considerations regarding the use of meiobenthos as indicator of seafloor disturbance. It will address the question of deep-sea mineral resources development versus benthic communities and will present an overview of field studies ("experiments") aimed at assessing the magnitude of potential impact associated with seafloor resources development (polymetallic nodule mining in particular) in the Pacific.SpringerBriefs in Earth System Sciences,2191-589XOceanographyGeobiologyMarine sciencesFresh waterEnvironmental monitoringAquatic ecologyOceanographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G25005Biogeoscienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35010Marine & Freshwater Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U36000Monitoring/Environmental Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U1400XFreshwater & Marine Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19066Oceanography.Geobiology.Marine sciences.Fresh water.Environmental monitoring.Aquatic ecology.Oceanography.Biogeosciences.Marine & Freshwater Sciences.Monitoring/Environmental Analysis.Freshwater & Marine Ecology.592.092Radziejewska Teresaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1065076MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299560403321Meiobenthos in the Sub-equatorial Pacific Abyss2543118UNINA
