Macrobenthos monitoring in function of the disposal of dredged material. more
Sampling area: The five dumping locations along the Belgian coast Sampling frequency: Autumn-spring sampling before 2010, afterwards only autumn sampling. Since 2012, dumping site Nieuwpoort and Oostende were only samples once over a three year period, the other sites yearly. Lineage
