Description
The database contains abundance of main meiofaunal groups and of harpacticoid copepods separately. There are also data present from a recolonisation study. more

This database is a product of 25 years of meiofaunal research of the Gulf of Trieste-TS Gulf. The data are based on coastal transects from 1-15m depth, sampling of offshore waters of the TS Gulf-31 stations, long term study at a single location in the central part of TS Gulf-10 years, and numerous other partial studies in the vicinity of mariculture site, harbour and other areas.

Lineage
