This dataset was generated by the Laboratory of Aquatic Ecology (KULeuven) and contains data that was gathered during a survey on <i>Pomatoschistus minutus</i> at the Belgian Coast, Oosterschelde, Westerschelde and at nuclear plants near Doel & Borssele.

Epibenthos and demersal fish monitoring in function of aggregate extraction

Epibenthos and demersal fish monitoring in function of dredge disposal monitoring

Epibenthos and demersal fish monitoring at long-term monitoring stations Trawl samples were taken within the disposal site and outside the disposal site (close neigbourhood) (classic controle/impact design). Sampling activities were in February-March and in September/October. A 8 meter shrimp beam trawl (22 mm mesh in the cod end) equipped with a bolder chain was used.The net was towed during 30 or 15 minutes at an average speed of 4 knots.

This report presents the results of the fifth research cruise in the waters off Guiné-Bissau coast from 7 May to 5 July 1995, on board of the Portuguese RV “Capricórnio”. 33 plankton surveys using a FAO net were carried on.

Total numbers of individual fish identified during the Cefas Young Fish Survey (YFS) which ran from 1981 to 2010. The survey deployed a light 2-meter beam trawl to survey inshore locations for small / young fish around the British Isles, predominantly along the south and east coasts. Total numbers of fish (identified to species or if not to the highest taxonomic level) were recorded at each station, and were measured in the majority of cases. The surveys were primarily undertaken to evaluate the abundance of juvenile sole and plaice, as well as providing further information on the abundance of other species of fish. The YFS formed part of the International Young Fish Survey, coordinated by ICES.

Study of the epibenthos and fish community at the nuclear power station in Doel (Western Scheldt) during the period September 1991-February 1992. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Maebe, S. (1992).

Global information system on fishes, including key information on all fish taxa. FishBase on the web contains practically all fish species known to science.

The ICES EcoSystemData system joins several databases on physical, biological and chemical information into one system. The data available in EurOBIS is an extract from the EcoSystemData System of ICES

Epibenthos and demersal fish monitoring in function of wind energy development. Trawl samples were taken within the wind farms (between the turbine rows, just outside the edges of the concessions and at reference stations
