A study was performed to understand the geochemical factors that influence the spatial distribution of the meiobenthic community on the rocky shore of Hujeong, a typical eastern coast in Korea. Eleven sediment samples were collected from the study area; meiobenthos were separated from each other and analyzed for characteristics such as grain size, total organic carbon, and major and trace elements. A total of 9 meiobenthic animal groups were identified, and benthic harpacticoids were found to predominate in most samples with a mean meiofaunal density of 6...
