| Abstract | Recolonization of benthic fauna in defaunated sediment contaminated with octylphenol (OP) has been investigated by the use ofin situ microcosm exposure study. Trays with defaunated sediment (control) and those treated with five OP concentrations (0.59, 5.4, 7.6, 66, and 660 μg g$^{−1}$, sediment dry weight (DW)) were exposed at the subtidal (ca. 10 m), in the southern coast of Korea, over two months. The initial response (after one-month exposure) of macrozoobenthos at the trays of control and three lower OP (0.59–7.6 μg g$^{−1}$ DW) showed rapid colonization of macrozoobenthos with high diversity and abundance. However, the species number sharply decreased after two-month exposure, particularly at the tray of greatest OP (660 μg g$^{−1}$ DW) treated with species number from 15 (after 30-days) to 3 (after 70-days). Other univariate indices such as abundance and biomass of benthic macrofauna also showed concentration-and time-dependent declines, indicating a potential adverse effect of OP on benthic community recolonization. Further, the multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) analysis that clearly separated two distinct faunal groups of macrobenthos during exposure supported the concentration-dependant recolonization followed by succession at the OP concentration of >7.6 μg g$^{−1}$ DW. Similar to macrofauna, the meiofaunal abundance significantly decreased at the OP concentration of >7.6 μg g$^{−1}$ DW, indicating certain threshold of OP between 7.6–66 μg g$^{−1}$ DW that caused adverse effect on benthic community recolonization. Although the critical adverse OP concentration found in community level was relatively high compared to the environmental concentrations (ppb levels) reported in coastal sediments, it should be pointed out that certain species could be influenced by the exposure of lower OP concentrations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
