Rocky shore data from the Capraia Marine Protected Area Citation Benedetti-Cecchi L. (2004). Rocky shore data from the Capraia Marine Protected Area.

For access to additional data, the provider needs to be contacted Description Data were part of a research project that wanted - amongst others - to quantify the spatial and temporal variation of the benthic rocky reef assemblages in the Marine Protected Area (MPA) of Capraia Island (Tuscan Archipelago) and a bordering non-protected area. more Data are from rocky bottom photographic samples at 5 m depth Sampling location was Capraia Island Marine Protected Area, NW Mediterranean, Tuscany Archipelago, 43°02'.40N, 09°50'.14E Sampling was repeated in each of 3 Protected and Unprotected Shores (stretches of shore about 30m long, hundreds of m apart) 2 Sites (Stretches of shore 3-5 m long, tens of m apart) were sampled in each Shore 5 Replicates (photographic samples on 20x20 cm quadrates) were sampled in each Site Sampling was repeated at three different dates Lineage Prior to publication data undergo quality control checked which are described in https://github.com/EMODnet/EMODnetBiocheck?tab=readme-ov-file#understanding-the-output Scope Themes: Biology, Biology > Benthos Keywords: Marine/Coastal, Benthos, Bio-geographical regions, Biota, Environment, Geoscientific Information, Habitats and biotopes, Macrobenthos, Marine protected area, Metadata non conformant, Metadata not evaluated, No limitations to public access, Oceans, Rocky shores, Sea regions, WGS84 (EPSG:4326), XYZ ASCII, EurOBIS calculated BBOX, MED, Italy, Tuscany, Capraia I.
