Buried Alive: The Behavioural Response of the Mussels, Modiolus modiolus and Mytilus edulis to Sudden Burial by Sediment
Fig 4
M. edulis mortality influenced by temperature under burial (Exp. 2).
M. edulis were held under three water temperatures (A), two durations (B) and three burial depths (C) in a multifactorial experiment to investigate the variation in mortality as a response to sudden episodic burial across the thermal range of an annual seasonal cycle.
