Abstrakt: Studies how the differences in the aerial extent of disturbance affected macrofaunal recolonization on a sandflat. Relationship between density and disturbance plot size; Slowed rate of faunal recovery following defaunation; Importance of patch size, emigration, recovery time, hydrodynamic conditions and habitat stability in the recovery processes.
