Vertical distribution of meiofauna in the North Sea and the Westerschelde estuary in 1993 and 1994

Dataset on meiobenthos densities and biomass of nematode genera for 2 stations (North Sea and Westerschelde) sampled on 22June 1993 and 31March 1994. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Tuhumury, S.F. (1995). Vertical distribution of meiofauna related to biogeochemistry: a case study from one station in the North Sea and one station in the Westerschelde estuary. MSc Thesis. RUG: Gent. 102 pp.
