Effects of freshwater input and mariculture (bivalves and macroalgae) on spatial distribution of nanoflagellates in Sungo Bay, China

Sungo Bay in northern China has been used for rearing bivalves and macroalgae for several decades. The bivalve culture areas (B-area) are located in the bay head, and the macroalgae culture areas (M-area) are located outside of the B-area. In field investigations, we compared the nanoflagellates (NF...
