The data are based on fisheries statistics recorded from the three most important fishing ports in the Northern Aegean Sea (1984-1999) and NOAA satellite images processed using GIS and image analysis tools. Autocorrelation (AC) and partial autocorrelation (PAC) functions were estimated leading to the identification and construction of seasonal ARIMA models, suitable for explaining the time series and forecasting future abundance values. The performance of the models was tested by comparing the predicted against the observed data of the last year (1999) and by examining the distribution and the AC of the residuals. The analysis provided results characterizing the different fishing patterns in each geographic area, as well as new series containing seasonally adjusted values, trend, cycle and error components of the model. Time series of several statistical parameters describing spatio-temporal variations of the SST were estimated and analysed aiming at the detection of anomalies and possible stock-environment relationships. Cross-correlation analysis between SST parameters and stock biomass indexes showed significant correlation coefficients, before and after compensation of the seasonal fluctuations by seasonal differencing. The results suggest that SST can be a leading indicator for stock prediction of the target species in the survey area.}, author = {Georgakarakos, S. and Haralabous, J. and Valavanis, V. and Arvanitidis, C. and Koutsoubas, D. and Kapantagakis, A.} } @inbook {14455, title = {Zoobenthos - soft bottom fauna}, booktitle = {State of the Hellenic Marine Environment}, year = {2005}, pages = {236-246}, publisher = {Hellenic Center for Marine Research}, organization = {Hellenic Center for Marine Research}, address = {Athens}, keywords = {KAPE Marine}, author = {Zenetos, A. and Arvanitidis, C. and Thessalou-Legaki, M. and Simboura, N.}, editor = {Papathanasiou, E. and Zenetos, A.} } @article {13009, title = {Temporal variations in benthic communities and their response to physicochemical forcing: a numerical approach}, journal = {ICES Journal of Marine ScienceICES Journal of Marine Science}, volume = {57}, number = {5}, year = {2000}, pages = {1507-1516}, publisher = {Academic Press}, keywords = {marine}, author = {Triantafyllou, G. and Petihakis, G. and Dounas, C. and Koutsoubas, D. and Arvanitidis, C. and Eleftheriou, A.} } @article {11875, title = {New information on the biogeographical and ecological distribution of Pionosyllis anophthalma Capaccioni \& San Martin, 1989 (Polychaeta, Syllidae)}, journal = {Transitional Waters BulletinTransitional Waters Bulletin}, volume = {1}, number = {4}, year = {2007}, month = {2007}, pages = {53-58}, isbn = {1825-229X}, author = {Simboura, N. and Reizopoulou, S. and Arvanitidis, C. and Basset, A.} } @article {8119, title = {Macrobenthic community structure and disturbance assessment in Gialova Lagoon, Ionian Sea}, journal = {ICES Journal of Marine ScienceICES Journal of Marine Science}, volume = {57}, number = {5}, year = {2000}, note = {Cited By (since 1996): 14Export Date: 6 September 2006Source: ScopusReferences: Amanieu, M., Guelorget, O., Michel, P., Richesse et diversite? de la macrofauna benthique d{\textquoteright}une lagune littorale Me?diterrane?e (1977) Vie et Milieu, 27, pp. 85-109; Ananiadis, C., Quelques aspects du proble?me d{\textquoteright}amenagement des pe?cheries des lagunes et des e?tangs co?tie?res de Gre?ce (1984), pp. 477-520. , Management of Coastal Lagoon Fisheries.

A multidisciplinary study investigating the structure and functioning of Gialova Lagoon for the development of an integrated economic, social, and environmental management policy consistent with its conservation was carried out on a seasonal basis during 1995/1996. One of the research priorities was to investigate the structure and dynamics of the macrozoobenthic communities and assess whether these communities had recovered from the impact of the oil spill. The various methods applied (abundance/biomass comparison, distribution of species in geometric abundance and geometric size classes) revealed no detectable disturbance of the macrobenthic communities due to anthropogenic impact. However, it was proved that the lagoonal macrofauna suffered extreme natural disturbance due to a dystrophic crisis that occurred during autumn although they successfully recovered in subsequent seasons. Different sets of environmental factors were found to be highly correlated with the temporal and spatial distribution pattern of the macrobenthic communities and are discussed in detail. The coenocline observed in Gialova Lagoon appears to be strongly correlated with the degree of water exchange with adjacent marine and continental environments. {\textcopyright} 2000 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.}, keywords = {Coastal lagoons, Disturbance assessment, Ionian Sea, Macrobenthic communities, marine, Population structure and dynamics}, author = {Koutsoubas, D. and Dounas, C. and Arvanitidis, C. and Kornilios, S. and Petihakis, G. and Triantafyllou, G. and Eleftheriou, A.} } @proceedings {8113, title = {Community structure and dynamics of the molluscan fauna in a mediterranean lagoon (Gilaova lagoon, SW Greece).}, year = {1999}, month = {17-21 May 1999}, pages = {77}, publisher = {Hellenic Zoological Society}, address = {Kavala}, keywords = {kape Mollusca}, author = {Koutsoubas, D. and Arvanitidis, C. and Dounas, K. and Drummond, L.} } @article {7998, title = {Macrofauna associated with sponge species of different morphology.}, journal = {Marine Ecology-Pubblicazioni della Stazione Zoologica di NapoliMarine Ecology-Pubblicazioni della Stazione Zoologica di Napoli}, volume = {17}, number = {4}, year = {1996}, pages = {569-582}, abstract = {The macrofaunas associated with the three morphologically different North Aegean Sea sponge species Agelas oroides, Aplysina aerophoba, and Axinella cannabina were compared.

A uniform multivariate pattern exists at the pan-Mediterranean and national (sectorial) levels: lagoons can be different when they host only a few species, but as species numbers increase, lagoons become homogenous in composition. Multivariate techniques cannot distinguish anthropogenically-impacted lagoons from those, which are naturally disturbed. In the pan-Mediterranean context it is the higher taxonomic levels, but in the national and local context it is the most abundant macrobenthic groups (polychaetes, molluscs and crustaceans) and meiobenthos which provide patterns closest to that derived from the species level. Taxonomic distinctness indices applied to polychaete and mollusc inventories provide meaningful results at most levels and scales of observation. These indices seem to be robust enough to discriminate anthropogenically impacted from naturally disturbed lagoons. {\textcopyright} Springer-Verlag and AWI 2005.}, keywords = {biodiversity, macrofauna, marine, Mediterranean, multivariate analysis, Taxonomic distinctness}, author = {Arvanitidis, C. and Chatzigeorgiou, G. and Koutsoubas, D. and Kevrekidis, T. and Dounas, C. and Eleftheriou, A. and Koulouri, P. and Mogias, A.} } @article {2966, title = {Polychaete fauna associated with the coral Cladocora caespitosa (L.) in the eastern Mediterranean.}, journal = {Memoires du Museum National d{\textquoteright}Histoire NaturelleMemoires du Museum National d{\textquoteright}Histoire Naturelle}, volume = {162}, year = {1994}, note = {(Proceedings of the 4th International Polychaete Conference, 27 July-1 August 1992, Angers, France) Actes de la 4{\`e}me Conference International des Polychetes, 27 Juillet-1 Aoϋt 1992, Angers, France; Dauvin, J.-C.;Laubier, L.;Reish, D.J.

In addition, some features of the species, not reported by previous authors, are given. Also, the holotype of the Atlantic species P. bihanica(Intes \& Le Loeuff, 1975) was re-examined and useful conclusions about the status of this species and its distinction from the new species are drawn. Re-examination of a specimen from the Ionian Sea, reported as Onuphis lepta,shows that it possibly belongs to the new species. The new species is compared with its closest congeners (P. quadricuspis, P.bihanica, and P. fauchaldi (Kirkegaard, 1988)) and the characters distinguishing them are given.

Out of the 39 species identified eight are reported for the first time from the central Mediterranean. The dominant species were the polychaetes Capitella capitata, Neodexiospira pseudocorrugata, Malacoceros fuliginosus, Perinereis cultrifera, Hediste diversicolor, Heteromastus filiformis and the oligochaete Limnodriloides maslinicensis. Uni- and multivariate methods were employed to study the community structure. The coenocline observed is strongly related to the degree of isolation; its main features (i.e. number of species, density, geometric abundance and size-classes) in space and time are presented and discussed in detail. The distribution pattern of the annelid community has been found to be governed by a different set of environmental factors in each season.
