Beschrijving
The dataset holds information on the stations sampled during the BIOICE (Benthic Invertebrates of Icelandic Waters) project. The sampling occurred from 1991 to 2004. Samples were taken on the Norwegian RV Håkon Mosby, the Icelandic RV Bjarni Sæmundsson and the Faeroese RV Magnus Heinason. The samples were mainly taken with a RP sled, a detritus sled, a triangular dredge, an Agassiz trawl and a Shipek grab, and in few cases Smögen grab, Van Veen grab, a gravity corer and a remotely operated camera were used. The samples taken at these stations were analysed for the presence and abundance of isopods, cumaceans and amphipods for which the data can be found in other datasets linked to this dataset record meer

The objectives of the Bioice program are to increase our understanding of the biodiversity and the distribution patterns of individual species that are thriving on the sea floor, in Icelandic waters.
Iceland is a part of the Greenland-Scotland Ridge, which marks boundaries between the biogeographic regions of the Arctic and the North Atlantic Boreal region. There are thus entirely different sets of species that are thriving north and south of the Greenland-Scotland Ridge.
The main objectives of Bioice are to gather comprehensive information on what species of benthic invertebrates are thriving in Icelandic waters, their physical enviroment and to promote international research on their ecology, taxonomy, systematics, and biogeography.
