Description

Study of the species composition of the copepod community at the Southern Bight of the North Sea, in relation to environmental variables. more

Data were collected in the framework of a PhD thesis. The main aim was to describe the meiobenthos communities and their relationship with environmental parameters in the Southern Bight of the North Sea, with an emphasis on copepods.
