Title

Temporal evolution of zooplankton, surface observations, in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea, Villefranche-sur-mer 1898-1917

Abstract

The Observatoire of Villefranche sur Mer supports the regular observation of large zooplankton from 1898-1917 and daily sampling using different nets since 1966 and onwards at a time series station located at the entrancy of the Bay of Villefranche sur Mer.

Abstract

EMODnet (www.emodnet.eu) is a long term marine data initiative spanning seven broad disciplinary themes: bathymetry, geology, physics, chemistry, biology, seafloor habitats and human activities. The EMODnet Central Portal allows users to access data products from each of these lots under one single interface. EMODnet Biology is dedicated to data about biodiversity (www.emodnet-biology.eu). The "Temporal evolution of zooplankton from 1898-1917 and 1966 onwards in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea" dataset has been compiled under the activity "Data archaeology and rescue", which aims at filling the spatial and temporal gaps. This is a two-part process of first identifying and locating data and then performing the steps required to merge them into a digital database, which further is distributed through EurOBIS, and the EMODnet data portal.

Method Step

Description

Zooplankton abundance was counted by specialist from the ship deck.

Sampling

Study Extent

The sampling site is located at the mouth of the Bay over a bathymetry of 80m and is thus open to the Ligurian Sea.

Sampling Description

NONE

qualityControl

Description

Data were entered manually to an Excel template. After entry into the Excel template data were transferred to DwC format. The list of species after applying taxonomic quality control, contains the presently valid names according to the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) and the AphiaID is matched against every single species name. Spatial quality control was also performed and the coordinates are provided.
