Description

Data on densities and species composition of copepods on a sublittoral sandy station (station 50) in the North Sea. more

During one year, samples were collected from a sublittoral sandy station to investigate the present meiofauna and in particular the copepods. The goal was to study the vertical distribution of the meiofauna in space and time. Meiobenthic communities were analysed both in a qualitative and quantitative manner.
