Petroleum hydrocarbon contamination and macrobenthos in the sandy tidal flats of Taean were monitored for 1 year to assess the impacts of Hebei Spirit oil on the macrobenthic community. A total of 207 macrobenthic fauna was collected, and the mean density and biomass of macrobenthic fauna continued to decrease until 12 months after the oil spill, but macrobenthic density at the most heavily affected sites increased by about twofold. In January 2008, the dominant species occurred at very low densities in strongly affected sites. The macrobenthic communities differed between oil-affected and unaffected sites. In particular, differences in community structure at Mallipo beach were larger than those at Shinduri. We suggest that long-term monitoring is needed to assess the specific effects of oil pollution on the sandy intertidal macrobenthic community.
对泰安沙滩潮间带的石油烃污染和大型底栖动物进行了为期一年的监测，以评估河北精神号溢油对大型底栖动物群落的影响。共采集了 207 种大型底栖动物，大型底栖动物的平均密度和生物量持续下降，直到溢油后 12 个月，但受影响最严重的地点的大型底栖动物密度增加了约两倍。2008 年 1 月，在受严重影响的地点，优势种的密度非常低。受油影响和未受油影响的地点之间的大型底栖动物群落存在差异。特别是，在马利波海滩的群落结构差异大于在新土里的差异。我们建议需要进行长期监测，以评估石油污染对沙滩潮间带大型底栖动物群落的具体影响。
