摘要：

In a laboratory experiment pumping activity of Arenicola marina was studied. Tidal periods of submersion were simulated. At the beginning of submersion pumping rates reach a maximum. During submersion pumping is interrupted by defecation at regular intervals. A strong correlation was found between temperature and pumping rate, values at 8° C being twice as low as the values at 16° C. Pumping rates are far too low (430 ml·h-1 at maximum for a worm of 4 g) to cause sediment transport, but may be important in transport of soluable matter. © 1979.
