Protistan bacterivory and benthic microbial biomass in an intertidal creek mudflat [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
We examined 8 sediment samples collected at 3 h intervals at Dean Creek (Sapelo Island, Georgia) to assess the impact of protist bacterivory on the standing crops of benthic bacterial biomass. The combined biomass of the benthic microalgae (BMA), bacteria, heterotrophic protists, and meiofauna ranged from 0.41 to 0.57 mg C g\textasciicircum
