The coastal waters around Yantai have been subjected to a variety of anthropogenic pressures over the last two decades. To assess the current benthic ecological health and the recovery process of the benthic ecosystem, four surveys were conducted in 2010 and 2011. The AMBI and M-AMBI were applied to assess the benthic ecological status. The ecological status of the Sishili Bay and Taozi Bay was "moderate" to "good" at most sampling stations during four surveys, but some stations were degraded due to pollution and eutrophication induced by human activities. The ecological status improved after removal of the marine raft culture and minimizing the amount of waste water discharged into the coastal waters of Yantai. The AMBI and M-AMBI could be used as suitable bio-indicator indices to assess the benthic ecological status of coastal waters in Yantai, Shandong Province.
过去二十年来，烟台周边的沿海水域一直受到各种人为压力的影响。为了评估当前的底栖生态健康状况和底栖生态系统的恢复过程，我们于 2010 年和 2011 年进行了四次调查。我们应用 AMBI 和 M-AMBI 来评估底栖生态状况。在四次调查中，大多数采样点的石老人湾和桃花岛的底栖生态状况处于“中等”到“良好”水平，但由于人类活动引起的污染和富营养化，一些站点的底栖生态状况较差。通过清除海上筏式养殖和减少向烟台近岸海域排放的污水量，底栖生态状况得到了改善。AMBI 和 M-AMBI 可以作为评估山东省烟台市近岸海域底栖生态状况的合适生物指标。
