Description

Data gathered during BEWREMABI project sampling campaigns more

Data was gathered during BEWREMABI project (part of SPSD-II federal science policy programme) sampling campaigns. Epifauna was scraped from horizontal or vertical quadrates. On board the meiofauna was separated from the macrofauna and the meiofauna samples were identified to species level.
