| Abstract |
This thesis investigates macroinvertebrate communities living on the seafloor across an Arctic region undergoing rapid environmental change, where ecological knowledge remains limited. Going beyond species identity and the diverse communities these organisms form, it examines the behavioural, life history, and morphological traits that determine their ecological roles and interactions within the ecosystem. This work advances understanding of the processes structuring Arctic benthic ecosystems and their potential responses to climate change. |
