Abstract
    The soft-substrate macrobenthic community was investigated at a large scale before and after construction of an offshore wind farm. To make a distinction between natural fluctuations of the macrobenthic community and construction effects of the wind farm on the macrobenthos a temporal study was carried out over 32 years followed by a detailed analysis of the monitoring data (2005-2012). A significant difference in community composition was observed between the macrobenthos of the Thorntonbank and the macrobenthic community in the control area during and just after construction, suggesting a short-term construction effect. An impact evaluation with monitoring data was also carried out using the benthic indicator BEQI.
