Presence and density data for ichtyofauna and epibenthos sampled in and around the aniline discharge area between 1982 and 1984 and comparison of the spring sampling data with two coastal reference zones choosen in the Belgian Part of the North Sea. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Maertens, D. (1987).
