The effect of flow direction on microbial community succession on artificial reefs
In this study, the development and succession of the epiphytic microbial communities on the stoss side and lee side of AR blocks during initial deployment phase were investigated with high-throughput sequencing technology for the first time. The main objectives were to compare with the microbial community structure between stross side and lee side of ARs, and to initially explore the relations between microbial community and macrobiomes.
