چکیده انگلیسی
This paper examines the possible effects of discharges from a desalination plant on the macrobenthic community inhabiting the sandy substratum off the coast of Blanes in Spain (NW Mediterranean) using multivariate and univariate analyses. Two controls and one putatively impacted location were selected and visual censuses were carried out 12 times before and 12 times after the plant had begun operating. No significant variations attributable to the brine discharges from the desalination plant were found. The failure to record any impact may be explained by the high natural variability that is a characteristic feature of bottoms of this type and also by the rapid dilution undergone by the hypersaline brine upon leaving the discharge pipe.
