This dataset contains mesozooplankton (Crustacea) data from the South Adriatic Sea.

Zooplankton from the Belgian Part of the North Sea was sampled monthly in 2009 and 2010 at 10 monitoring stations, using a WP2 net (57cm, 200µm mesh size), which was towed in an oblique haul from bottom to surface.

Extraction of type locality information from the World Register of Marine Species.

Epibenthos and demersal fish monitoring in function of wind energy development. Trawl samples were taken within the wind farms (between the turbine rows, just outside the edges of the concessions and at reference stations

The IMR zooplankton database holds Barents Sea data on species composition (abundance), size fractionated biomass as well as biomass for particular zooplankton groups obtained from standard seasonal transects (Fugløya-Bjørnøya and Vardø-Nord) and a regional coverage of the Barents Sea during autumn. Data on species composition are limited.

The aim of this data collection was to improve the knowledge on the occurrence of Echinoderms in the Adriatic Sea.

Data contain abundance (number of individuals per species) and biomass (wet weight or dry weight per species) information.

Bacteria non taxonomy-related data collected in the Adriatic and Ionian Sea within SESAME Project during the cruises: SESAME-IT1, SESAME-IT6 and SESAME-IT7.

Macrobenthos monitoring in function of the Water Framework Directive

Epibenthos and demersal fish monitoring at long-term monitoring stations Trawl samples were taken within the disposal site and outside the disposal site (close neigbourhood) (classic controle/impact design). Sampling activities were in February-March and in September/October. A 8 meter shrimp beam trawl (22 mm mesh in the cod end) equipped with a bolder chain was used.The net was towed during 30 or 15 minutes at an average speed of 4 knots.
