We present the results of a study on faunal zonation and sediment properties on a low-energy, mesotidal sandy beach located on Ria de Aveiro (northwestern Portugal). The topography of the sampling area was mapped and five strata were defined in situ according to their macroscopic characteristics. A stratified random design was used to sample the fauna and environmental parameters. Anova (for environmental parameters) and multivariate analysis (for faunal data) showed that significant differences occurred across the shoreline. The beach is of an intermediate morphodynamic type, with a reflective, more physically controlled upper shore, and a dissipative, more chemically controlled lower shore. Although our multivariate analysis of the fauna ...
