Ordination analysis revealed significant differences in species composition and abundance between the two study periods. The number of stations with indicators of eutrophication, such as species of Chaetomorpha, Cladophora, and Ulva, decreased from 1982 to 1999. This decrease was not balanced by an increase in species typical of pristine environments, such as large perennial brown algae (in particular, Cystoseira mediterranea), but rather by an increase of stress-resistant species such as Corallina elongata. The observed shifts seem to be driven by the decrease in nutrient loadings in the water column, resulting from the progressive implementation of sewage treatment management in the study region since the mid-1970s.This study has been financed by the “Agència Catalana de l’Aigua” (Departament de Medi Ambient i Habitatge, Generalitat de Catalunya) and by the INTRAMURAL-CSIC project reference 201330E065.Peer reviewedWalter de Gruyter201420142013info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://hdl.handle.net/10261/94437reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
