Abundance of Sardina pilchardus eggs and larvae at different layers of the water column during the INTER_B survey (February 1997) in the southern Catalan coast [Dataset]

his dataset gives information on sardine eggs and larval abundances at different layers of the water column in the southern Catalan coast in February 1997. This research was based on a Lagrangian experiment using stratified hauls to study the vertical distributions of Sardina pilchardus eggs and larvae at different times of day in the water parcel tracked by several hydrographic buoys. Sardine larvae exhibited greater dispersal through the water column at night than during the day (with a preference for levels below 30 m)
