Habitat features not water variables explain most of fish assemblages use of sandy beaches in a Brazilian eutrophic bay

The influence of water variables and the availability of complex bottom habitats in the sublittoral zone on surf-zone fish assemblages of sandy beaches in a Brazilian eutrophic bay were assessed. In total, 64 seine hauls were carried out bimonthly between October 2012 and September 2013 in two beach...

Summary:The influence of water variables and the availability of complex bottom habitats in the sublittoral zone on surf-zone fish assemblages of sandy beaches in a Brazilian eutrophic bay were assessed. In total, 64 seine hauls were carried out bimonthly between October 2012 and September 2013 in two beaches located within a marine-estuarine transitional zone in Guanabara Bay and
