悬浮食性动物是海岸浅水硬底和软底生境中常见的宏观生物。许多形式聚集在特定的海底类型上,在那里它们利用海浪、潮汐和风驱动的洋流提供的免费能源补贴,这些洋流向它们输送氧气和颗粒食物,带走废物,驱散幼虫,并排除捕食者。因为这些生物可以在水柱和底部之间移动和处理大量物质,它们通常是底栖-上层耦合和营养循环的主要媒介(Dame 1996; Wildish and Kristmanson 1997)。作为一个群体,由于它们的悬浮喂养能力,它们被提升为系统过滤器或清洁器(Newell 1988)。一些礁石建造者被认为是控制侵蚀的机制(Kirtley和Tanner 1968)。所有这些功能角色意味着底栖悬浮物在许多浅海海岸系统的整体功能中起着重要作用。
Suspension-feeding animals are common macroscopic inhabitants of hardand soft-bottom habitats in shallow coastal waters. Many forms aggregate on specific bottom types where they take advantage of the free-energy subsidies provided by waves, tides and wind-driven currents that transport oxygen and particulate food to them, carry away waste, disperse larvae, and exclude predators. Because these organisms can move and process large amounts of material between the water column and the bottom, they are often major agents of benthic-pelagic coupling and nutrient cycling (Dame 1996; Wildish and Kristmanson 1997). As a group, they have been promoted as system filters or cleaners because of their suspension-feeding abilities (Newell 1988). Some reef builders are advocated as erosion-control mechanisms (Kirtley and Tanner 1968). All of these functional roles imply that benthic suspension feeders play a significant part in the overall functioning of many shallow coastal systems.
