Abstract:
The dataset is composed of 50 years of approximately monthly mesozooplankton sampling at station Stončica. The volume of filtered water was estimated assuming 70% efficiency of the Hensen 330 micrometer mesh size net according to Laevastu (1958). Subsamples amounting to 1/20 of the catch were counted for the most representative groups. The whole catch was examined for rare species.The results in the datatables are recalculated to (#/m**3).

Event(s):
Stoncica_Station * Latitude: 43.044000 * Longitude: 16.285000 * Location: Adriatic Sea * Campaign: Stoncica * Basis: Bios * Method/Device: Hensen net (HNET) * Comment: Mesozooplankton was sampled using the 330 micrometer mesh Hensen net (73 cm mouth diameter), towed vertically from near bottom to surface (0-100 m) at towing speed of 0.3 m/s. Samples were fixed in 2 % formaldehyde solution buffered with borax. Flowmeter was not used. No comments on the quality of the sampling events were entered in the records.
