Abstract
Population structure and trophic composition of free-living nematodes from carbonate sands within different functional zones (reef crest, reef flat and lagoon) of Davies Reef in the Great Barrier Reef were examined. At the reef crest (station C) and at a shallow lagoon area unprotected by the back wall of the reef flat (station G), sediments were subjected to intense wave action and supported significantly (P < 0.05) lower mean nematode densities (Keywords
