Changes in the macrobenthos of a sandy beach during "El Niño" 1997-98 in the Malaga Bay, Colombian Pacific

 Changes in the macrobenthic community of a sandy-beach were studied during the "El Niño" 1997-98 event at the Malaga Bay, in the central Colombian Pacific. Species composition was recorded monthly from October 1997 to May 1998 at four tidal levels, and species diversity (Shannon-...

Species composition was recorded monthly from October 1997 to May 1998 at four tidal levels, and species diversity (Shannon-Wienner, H') and richness were calculated. In order to analyze community structure changes, multivariate ordinations were performed (non-metric multidimensional scaling) and species responsible for the observed temporal changes were discriminated using a dissimilarity index. Differences in species diversity and richness were related to a seriation pattern in vertical species distribution . A common pattern of structure change was found at four tidal levels on the beach. Population reduction or increase of some species and vertical modifications of the spatial distribution patterns were the main source of temporal community change. En este artículo se analizan los cambios estructurales del macrobentos de playa arenosa en la Bahía de Málaga, en la region central del Pacífico colombiano, durante un período caracterizado por la influencia del evento climático conocido como "El Niño" (EN). Se realizaron muestreos mensuales entre octubre de 1997 y mayo de 1998, registrando la abundancia de especies en 4 niveles mareales distintos en transectos perpendiculares a la línea de costa. A partir de esta información se estimó la diversidad (Shannon-Wienner, H´  ) la riqueza de especies, y se realizó un análisis de ordenación por escalamiento multidimensional no métrico (MDS), a fín de establecer los cambios estructurales. Las especies responsables de los cambios temporales en la comunidad se discriminaron mediante el uso de un índice de disimilaridad. Durante el estudio se observó una distribución vertical que corresponde a un patrón dinámico de seriación, más que a una zonación propiamente dicha. Las variaciones temporales de este patrón ocasionaron las principales diferencias temporales en diversidad y riqueza de especies en los niveles mareales. En cuanto a la estructura de la comunidad, se observó un patrón común de variación temporal en los 4 niveles mareales, relacionado con desplazamientos verticales o fluctuaciones de densidad de algunas especies.
