- W2336485485 abstract "Waychinicup Estuary (south-western Australia) is dominated by tidal and swell exchange with the ocean and receives seasonal, but low, freshwater inflows. The estuary was surveyed in September 1995 to determine the significance of freshwater inflows to its ecology and to provide a detailed inventory of benthic flora and fauna because, like other estuaries, Waychinicup may come under pressure for diversion of inflows to meet demand for potable water. Gradients detected in benthic flora and fauna, sediment grain size and organic content, and water quality, were related to distance from the river mouth. Sediments closest to the river mouth had a higher organic content and a higher percentage of 7 m). We hypothesise that biotic gradients in the estuary are determined by freshwater inflow, principally through its contribution of fine and organic sediments, and less so through its effect on salinity. These sediments are prone to resuspension, reducing water clarity, limiting plant growth and providing a niche for euryhaline, low light-adapted macroalgae and a polychaete-dominated infauna in the upper estuary. Change in sediment type, increase in water clarity and increasing salinity produces a shift to a diverse macroalgal and seagrass community, and an amphipod-dominated benthic fauna in the lower estuary. Despite the dominance of oceanic exchange in the estuary, freshwater inflow is a key determinant of the composition and distribution of biota. Any significant reduction in freshwater inflow is likely to cause a change in water quality and biota; the system would have lower organic inputs, become clearer, and the plant and animal assemblages currently found in the upper reaches of the estuary may well be lost." @default.
