Mean biomass and abundance of benthic invertebrates in the Dutch Wadden Sea. (A) Mean annual biomass (g AFDM m−2) calculated across 14 years for the 15 most abundant species and all other species summed, ranked from most abundant to least abundant. (B) Mean annual numerical abundance (# m−2) calculated across 14 years for the 15 most abundant species and all other species summed. (C) Total biomass (g AFDM m−2) per year for the four most abundant species. (D) Total abundance (# m−2) per year for the four most abundant species. Error bars in (A) and (B) denote standard errors of the mean among years. For all species, the colors match between panels.
