    “Fjord are best developed on the coasts of British Columbia, southern Alaska, southern Chile, eastern Canada, Greenland, Norway, Iceland and Spitsbergen, the south-west of South Island (New Zealand); and finally Antarctica-Embleton & King (1968): Glacial and Periglacial Geomorphology p. 234”“fjord, or FIORD, long narrow arm of the sea, commonly extending far inland, that results from marine inundation of a glaciated valley. Many fjords are astonishingly deep-The New Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1968”There are 56 fjords in Denmark. The fjords in east-Jylland are the result of marine submergence of the deepest parts of the tunnel valleys, good examples are given by Vejle Fjord, Mariager Fjord. Sidinge fjord and Lamme fjord in Sjælland are central depressions under sea level. Maximum extent of the Stone Age Sea, and Ringkø bing Fjord, Nissum Fjord in west-Jylland are lagoons.

    Distribution of Polychaeta communities in the gradient of environmental factors has been analyzed on data gathered by expeditions of MMBI in the Hornsund-fjord, Gren-fjord, Is-fjord, Sassen-fjord, Nur-fjord, Belsunn-fjord in 2001, 2002, 2003, 2008. The trend of polychaetes biomass reduction (with increasing quantity) in direction from the inner part to the outer part of fjords has been estimated. The comparison of dominant species of polychaetes with the literature data has been carried out.
