MACROZOOBENTHIC COMMUNITIES IN THE EASTERN PART OF THE EASTERN BOSPHORUS STRAIT (PETER THE GREAT BAY, JAPAN SEA) by A. V. Moshchenko, T. A. Belan, V. V. Ivin

“…All conclusions are statistically significant and based on the results of consequential use of the factor and cluster analysis, non-metric multidimensional scaling and constrained correspondence analysis with bootstrap and randomization procedures. There is noted that the bottom communities in this area are subjected to rather significant contamination that supposedly causes decreasing of their stability and they may change their species composition and abundance under additional negative impact.…”
