Microphytobenthos collected in Panarea Island in the framework of ECO2 Project.

The survey data consist of: 1) one time series from 1984-2002 (October/November) using R/V Michael Sars and the Campelen-trawl; 2) a point estimate for 2003 (October) as R/V Michael Sars was taken out of service and substituted with R/V Håkon Mosby, whose winches at that time were not powerful enough for the Campelen-trawl, resulting in the survey being conducted with the Shrimp trawl 1420; 3) a start of a potential new time series as the survey in both 2004 and 2005 was conducted in May/June with R/V Håkon Mosby using the standard Campelen trawl; and 4) one time series from 2006 until present (January/February), using R/V Håkon Mosby and the Campelen trawl. From 2017 R/V Håkon Mosby has been substituted with R/V Kristine Bonnevie. In 2016, there were technical problems with the survey trawl (unequal wire lengths of the trawl gear) and this year’s data are considered to be non-representative of the stock status.

Data collected by the IBSS staff at several stations in the Black Sea along the Tuapse transect in August 1951. This dataset contains abundance data (individuals per liter) for phytoplankton taxa. No additional metadata is available.

Phytoplankton and microzooplankton collected near mussel farm activities in the Gulf of Trieste - North Adriatic Sea in the framework of sosteMiTS Project financed by Friuli Venezia Giulia Region. Data collected in 2008-2009.

Phytoplankton data collected by the IBSS staff at diurnal stations in the Sukhumi region, Black Sea, in November 1948. This dataset contains abundance data (individuals per liter) for phytoplankton taxa. No additional metadata is available.

Phytoplankton data collected by the IBSS staff near Sochi (Mamaika. Matsesta. Sochi river's mouth), Black Sea, during three surveys in 1974 and 1975. Samples were taken in the area of deep sea outfall of Sochi. This dataset contains abundance data (individuals per liter) and biomass (mg/m³) for phytoplankton taxa. Also size records are given for some of them. No additional metadata is available.

Phytoplankton data collected in the Black Sea during 117 cruise of the R/V "Kovalevskiy" and processed by Lyudmila Georgieva. <br> Samples were taken with 6 liter bathometers at standard depths and in the thermocline layer. 1-3 liter of water was concentrated by inverse filtering. Organisms were counted with a Nauman camera 0.4 cm³ or 0.001-0.01 cm³ for nanophytoplankton.

The dataset contains records of bats (Chiroptera) collected in the lower valley of River Sabor, which were collected in the scope of the long-term Ecological Monitoring Program (PME) of the Baixo Sabor Hydroelectric Dams, promoted by EDP – Energias de Portugal, S.A. Data were collected between August 2008 and November 2014, during field visits to 97 known or presumed bat hibernation, reproduction and pre-dispersion (post-reproduction) roosts, within a 5-km radius buffer around the lower valley of River Sabor. The presence of individuals was recorded by direct observation, and all individuals were photographed whenever possible. The records include taxa identified at the species or genus level. In several occasions it was not possible to separate the individual species, so they were grouped in several “species complexes”, including either one or multiple genus. Due to the vulnerability of the roost locations, the precision of the geographic coordinates was degraded to 0.01, according to the recommendations of Chapman &amp; Grafton (2008). The dataset with the original (undegraded) coordinates may be provided upon request by the resource contact from EDP, who will define the terms and conditions for its use.

Scleractinia of Eastern Australia

Microzooplankton abundance and composition were determined in the South Adriatic Sea in the framework of the Italian National Research Project PRISMA1-Flussi Project (1995-1996)
