說明

This dataset includes the macrofaunal community composition at the species level of the Benthic Boundary Layer (BBL) of the continental shelf and upper slope of Heraklion Bay, along with its seasonal and bathymetric changes. The study was conducted in spring and autumn of 2001 at depths of 50, 100, 200, and 300 meters, using a hyperbenthic sledge modified to artificially resuspend the sediment surface and simultaneously collect the macrofaunal organisms that reside on or a few centimeters above the seabed. The given diversity data contribute to understanding spatial and temporal trends, while also indicating anthropogenic impacts, e.g., the effects of otter trawling on the BBL macrofaunal communities.

取樣方法

As sampling apparatus, a modified hyperbenthic sledge Towed Trawl Simulator Sledge version 2, TTSS2) described in Koulouri et al. (2003), was used simulating the artificial resuspension of the sediment surface (total surface area of 0.45 m2, plankton nets with 0.5 mm mesh size). The sledge was towed from the research vessel “PHILIA” of the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research at a speed of two knots and with a length of wire paid out to depth ratio of 2:1. At station 1 (50 m isobath), three 50 m length tows were performed, while at each of the stations 2 (100 m isobath), 3 (200 m isobath) and 4 (300 m isobath), one 200 m length tow was carried out. Travelling distance of the sledge, while in contact with the seabed, was measured by an odometer and the whole process was monitored by a video-camera, both attached to the apparatus. On board, the samples were preserved in 10% formalin and sorted under a magnifying glass back in the laboratory. Furthermore, the macrofaunal organisms were identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level and counted using a stereoscope and a microscope.

研究範圍 Two field surveys were conducted on 27 February - 3 March (early spring) and 25 - 30 September (early autumn) 2001 on the continental shelf and upper slope of Heraklion Bay. Sampling was carried out in four isobaths (St.1, St. 2, St. 3, St. 4) at depths of 50,100, 200 and 300 m. Sampling at st. 4 was carried out only in early autumn.
品質控管 All scientific names were standardized against the World Register of Marine Species using the Taxon Match tool (http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=match) on 21-01-2026.

方法步驟描述:

  1. 1. Two field surveys were carried out in early spring and early autumn. During daylight hours, three tows with 50 m length were performed at station 1 and one tow of 200 m length at stations 2,3 and 4. St. 4 was only sampled in early autumn. Samples were fixed in 10% formalin after collection. 2. The macrofauna was sorted out, classified to the major taxa and counted. Furthermore, the taxonomic groups (Crustacea, Polychaeta ,Mollusca) were identified to the lowest possible taxon level and counted. Macrofaunal densities from the three replicates from station 1 were averaged. Then, all densities estimated in the samples were standardized to the number of individuals per 100 m2 of sediment surface. 3. The data were standardized according to the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) (Wilkinson MD. et al. 2016). To secure interoperability, the dataset was formatted according to Darwin Core Archive (Wieczorek et al. 2012). For scientific valid names, the World Register of Marine Species with its Taxon Match Tool (WoRMS Editorial Board 2026) was used and the additional measurements and associated facts were standardized with controlled terms from the NERC Vocabulary Server, enhancing interoperability across marine data repositories (BODC - British Oceanographic Data Centre 2026). In the end the dataset was tested using the LifeWatch & EMODnet Biology Quality Control tool (Perez et al. 2024).
