Impacts of burrowing sandprawns (Kraussillichirus kraussi) on water quality, phytoplankton and pelagic bacterial assemblages
… that requires addressing. Burrowing sandprawns (Kraussillichirus kraussi) have been shown in past research to improve water quality by removing microalgae from the water column. Their burrows are thought to act as biofiltration systems, with water-borne phytoplankton particles being adsorbed onto …

Interactive effects of temperature, nutrient level and sandprawns (Kraussillichirus kraussi) ecosystem engineering on microplankton community structure
… (including Southern African sandprawns: Kraussillichirus kraussi) and microorganisms have proven to be an effective nature-based tools to improve and monitor coastal water quality respectively. Previous research has proposed that the below-ground burrow systems of K. kraussi function as a …

Benthic and pelagic responses to endobenthic bioturbator (Kraussillichirus kraussi) density, temperature and eutrophication in a global change mesocosm experiment
… to global change. The axiid crustacean Kraussillichirus kraussi (sandprawn) plays a critical role as an endobenthic bioturbator in southern African estuaries and coastal ecosystems, with previous research highlighting its role in mediating bentho-pelagic coupling via top-down reductions …

Using benthic microalgae as an indicator of recreational disturbance associated with bait collection and trampling in Langebaan Lagoon, South Africa
… activities such as bait (sandprawns: Kraussillichirus kraussi) harvesting, along a gradient of human density. Overall, results obtained from multivariate analysis indicate that human numbers were linked to the changes in microalgal assemblages in Zone A. However, in combination with …
