These data give - for the first time - an overview of the meiofauna that inhabits the slope and the abyssal plains in Antarctic waters to a depth of 5 200 m.

Sightings and strandings of both dead and alive marine turtles in the British Isles and the Republic of Ireland.

The dataset comprises: species records from benthic surveys commissioned by SNH or projects where SNH were a partner and the outputs are under the custodianship of SNH. Additionally species records determined from SNH analysis of third party commissioned benthic survey video footage are included. The dataset contains surveys which contributed to the Marine Nature Conservation Review (MNCR) programme, EU-funded BioMar Life project, SNH Site Condition Monitoring including broad scale surveys in support of the Natura process, surveys to establish the impact of specific activities on marine habitats and species and surveys to support the Scottish Marine Protected Areas project.

Historical benthic dredge samples from the baltic

During the last 40 years of survey in the Lebanese seawaters and the Levantine Basin, we identified and described about 400 species, belonging to 85 genera, including 230 dinoflagellates and 156 diatoms, 10 Silicoflagellates and 4 Ebriidae, many of them are introduced or migrated from Red Sea and Indian Ocean into the Mediterranean, through the Suez Canal pathway.

This dataset contains data on marine species recorded in Ireland during field suveys by EcoServe, Ecological Consultancy Services Ltd.

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

The macrozoobenthos of the Southern Black Sea coast (Turkey) was quantitatively investigated during May-July 1999.

The marine biodiversity atlas of the Balearic Sea integrates marine information with relevant data of different taxonomic groups (from phytoplankton to big species) during a period of more than 40 years of research and surveys.

The main question in this research was how Harpacticoid copepod communities differ in species composition and diversity on a north to south gradient in the Western Baltic area and what factors might explain these differences
