Abundance and biomass of zooplankton collected from 1996 to 1998 collected allong the Romanian littoral

The Poluare 1996-1998 dataset contains zooplankton data collected allong 5 transect in front of the Romanian littoral. Zooplankton sampling was undertaken at 14 stations where samples were collected using a Juday closing net in the 0-2 and 0-10m layer . The dataset includes samples analysed for mesozooplankton species composition and abundance. Sampling volume was estimated by multiplying the mouth area with the wire length. Taxon-specific mesozooplankton abundance was count under microscope. Total abundance is the sum of the counted individuals. Total biomass Fodder, Rotifera , Ctenophora and Noctiluca was estimated using a tabel with wet weight for each species an stage.

Abundance and biomass of mesozooplankton in the western Black sea during Steaua de Mare cruise in 1982 and 1983

The Poluare 1982-1983 dataset contains zooplankton data collected allong 7 transect in front of the Romanian littoral.
