Description
On the 1st of September 2023, TunSea's platform selected a comprehensive inventory of species presentation derived from a diving excursion in Monastir Bay in Tunisia. This compilation concerns diverse taxonomic groups, ranging from Bivalvia and Crustacea to Gastropoda. The meticulous identification and validation of these species were executed by proficient taxonomists of the association.
Data Records
The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 1 records.
1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.
