MEIOFAUNA OF ONEONTA CREEK, OTSEGO COUNTY, NEW YORK

Meiofauna are tiny organisms that live between sediment grains in freshwater, the most prevalent of which are rotifers, gastrotrichs, and nematodes. Their distribution is affected by abiotic factors like groundwater flow, sediment type, and water chemistry. In order to learn more about the organisms found in Otsego County New York, a series of surveys were conducted in Oneonta Creek above and below Lower Reservoir. Twenty sites were sampled for organisms as well as for pH, salinity, conductivity, total dissolved solids, and temperature. The purpose of this talk is to provide more information about which meiofauna can be found in Oneonta Creek and discuss their pattern of distribution around the reservoir.
