摘要
Abstract
Seabed photographing has been applied with various underwater camera apparatuses (UCAs) for observations of megabenthic epifauna
which reveals more details than traditional sampling tools do. In this study
we improved a UCA named a towed underwater video-camera system (TUV system) with image processing software for seabed photographing in coastal areas up to 100 m. In May 2017
the TUV system was tested at 4 stations in the Zhangzi Island marine area in the northern Yellow Sea to investigate local megabenthic epifauna
especially brittle stars. At each station
more than 500 good seabed photographs each in area of 0.155 0 m
2
were obtained in just 10 min. Almost all of the epifauna larger than 1 mm could be identified from the photographs
including echinoderms
bivalves
cnidarians
and crustaceans. Three dominant brittle stars (
Ophiopholis mirabilis
Ophiura sarsii vadicola
and
Stegophiura sladeni
) were spotted
and their abundance
disc diameter
cluster size
and coverage area were calculated and analyzed from the seabed photographs. The results show that the TUV system could be applied in coastal waters of hard sandy bottoms and could be used for quantitative investigations of megabenthic epifauna.
