MAR-ECO (2003 - 2010)was an international exploratory study of the animals inhabiting the northern mid-Atlantic. Scientists from 16 nations around the northern Atlantic Ocean participated in research of the waters around the mid-Atlantic Ridge from Iceland to the Azores. This data set is subset of the data collected, and comprises presence/absence records for zooplankton and nekton, collected in 2003 on R/V Arni Fridriksson.

The dataset contains the monitoring data on abundance and biomass of four gelatinous zooplankton species (<i>Mnemiopsis leidyi, Beroe ovata, Aurelia aurita, Pleurobrachia pileus</i>) from January 2000 to December 2011 in Sevastopol Bay and inshore waters off the Crimean coast (about 2500 records). Gelatinous zooplankton was collected at 5 stations in Sevastopol Bay and 3 stations in inshore waters near Sevastopol.

Colección de gasterópodos recolectados en diferentes trabajos de investigación desarrollados principalmente en zonas intermareales del litoral Atlántico y Cantábrico.

Phytoplankton monitoring in the South Adriatic (Adricosm-STAR project), 2008-2009. Discrete water samples are taken at multiple depth layers. The samples were fixed with Ca(HCO3)2-buffered formaldehyde (0.8% final concentration) and cell abundance and species composition of phytoplankton were estimated according to Utermöhl’s method (1958), using an inverted microscope equipped with phase contrast, at 200-320-400x final magnifications.

<p>Sampling focused on oceanographic characterization and obtaining eggs for the Daily Egg Production Method (DEPM) and was carried out on board the B/I Abate Molina and the L/M Garota III vessels between September 20 and October 22, 2020. The study area ranged from parallel 18°25'S to parallel 26°03'S, achieving 811 of the 821 planned stations in 32 days. This cruise was part of the XXIII. Joint Regional Cruise, organized by the member countries of the Permanent Commission of the South Pacific (CPPS), in the context of the regional study of the “El Niño” phenomenon (RSENP).</p>

The data were collected by the IBSS staff at several stations in the Mediterranean Sea during a cruise on board of R/V Akademik S. Vavilov in 1959. This dataset contains abundance data (individuals per m³) and biomass data (mg/m³). Sampling instrument: Juday net, diameter - 30 cm, mouth - 0,071 m². Samples collected by V.Chuhchin and Yu.Gorbenko. No additional metadata is available.
