Macrobenthic densities and biomasess and sediment descriptors along a transect crossing the Gulf of Lions from the coast off Gruissan to the eastern side of the Gulf of Fos (French coast, NW Mediterranean)

This dataset includes the information from thirty-six samples collected in August 2014 from 12 stations along a transect crossing the Gulf of Lions, from the coast off Gruissan to the eastern side of the Gulf of Fos (French coast, NW Mediterranean), and refers to the density and biomass per square metre of the macrobenthos, as well as to all common descriptors of the sediments, including organic and inorganic contaminants, and the most relevant sea surface satellite vaiables.
