Density of major macrofauna taxa (and families of Amphipoda, Isopoda, Polychaeta and Tanaidacea) and sediment characteristics for 12 sampling sites at Gazi Bay (Kenya) sampled in September 1990. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Polk, P.; Okemwa, E. N. (1993). Dynamics and assessment of Kenyan mangrove ecosystems n° TS2-0240-C (GDF): final report (April 1993). Vrije Universiteit Brussel: Brussel. 244 pp.

Density and biomass of most important macrobenthos taxa and families and nematoda genera for monthly samples of the upper layer of a <i>Ceriops tagal</i> sediment at Gazi Bay. Additionally sediment granulometry and abiotic parameters were measured. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Pratiwi, R. (1995).

Universiteit Gent - Faculteit Wetenschappen, Vakgroep Biologie: Gent. 106 pp.

Densities of the most important meiobenthos phyla in an <i>Avicennia marina</i> mangrove sediment in Gazi Bay (Kenya) together with the sediment environmental data. Three replicate samples were taken for every monthly sample between August 1992 and July 1993. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Okondo, J. (1995).

This dataset contains data on two stations on the Belgian Continental Shelf that are sampled monthly for macrobenthic organisms.

Meiobenthic composition and densities near five seagrasses (<i>Halodule wrightii</i>, <i>Halophila ovalis</i>, <i>Thalassia hemprichii</i>, <i>Syringodium isoetifolium</i> and <i>Halophila stipulacea</i>). Two quadrants of each seagrass species, situated in an intertidal seagrass bed at Gazi Bay (Kenya) were sampled. Sediment samples were taken to a depth of ten centimetre using a plastic hand core. They were divided into six depth layers (0-1, 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, 5-10 cm). Relevant abiotic factors such as sediment characteristics and organic matter, pigment and nutrient content were also quantified. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Gurdebeke, S. (1998).

List of present/absent vegetation (seagrasses and benthic macroalgae) and their coverage of the sublittoral zone in Gazi Bay (Kenya) sampled between 24th July and 2nd September 1989. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: De Pauw, K. (1990). De vegetatie van de getijdengeul van Gazi Bay (Kenia); The vegetation of the tidal channels of Gazi Bay (Kenya). MSc Thesis. Rijksuniversiteit Gent. Faculteit Wetenschappen: Ghent. 142 pp.

This dataset contains a list of epiphytic macroalgae species and their percentage of coverage on the penumatophores of the mangroves in Gazi Bay, Kenya, sampled during August-September 1989. Also the particle size distribution data from the different transects is noted. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: De Schryver, T. (1990).
