Kongsfjorden monitoring data of soft bottom benthos
Description in English
The EU 5th Framework Concerted Action BIOMARE (2000- 2002) generated the idea of European Marine Biodiversity Sites (EMBS) - a selection of localities where marine biodiversity research will be focused in the coming years. MARBENA, another Shared Cost Activity of the EU, deals with the implementation of the BIOMARE research agenda. Two fjords located on Svalbard have been selected as EMBS - Hornsund for the All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory (ATBI) and Kongsfjorden for Long-term Biodiversity Research (LTBR).
Abstract in English
The main aim of the study was to establish the long term monitoring of arctic fauna in Kongsfjorden. The project is a part of a phd thesis by Monika Kedra.
