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. Zooplankton sampling was undertaken at 14 stations where samples were collected using a Juday closing net in the 0-2m 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. Total biomass was estimated using a tabel with wet weight for each species an stage. Taxon-specific mesozooplankton abundance was counted under the microscope.

波卢亚尔1982-1983年数据集收录了罗马尼亚近岸海域7条断面采集的浮游动物数据。该数据集的采样工作在14个站位开展，采用裘迪闭锁网（Juday closing net）于0~2米水层采集浮游动物样品。本数据集包含经分析的中型浮游动物（mesozooplankton）物种组成与丰度数据。采样体积通过网口面积与拖曳绳长的乘积估算得到。总生物量依据对应各物种及发育阶段的湿重参考表进行估算。研究人员通过显微镜完成了分类单元特异性的中型浮游动物丰度计数。
