Due to its key function, monitoring of phytoplankton is essential for understanding marine dynamics and in order to preserve the marine environment for the future. In Belgian coastal waters, phytoplankton is currently monitored under the European LifeWatch infrastructure by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) in collaboration with the Protistology & Aquatic Ecology (PAE) research group at the University of Gent. In this thesis, we aimed to create an updated inventory of phytoplankton biodiversity in the Belgian part of the North Sea while simultaneously assessing spatial and temporal dynamics.","EngDescr":"With the creation of an updated inventory accompanied by species descriptions of selected taxa that are challenging to identify, we aimed to produce a reference for future biodiversity assessments. To this end, we opted for a classical microscopic approach in combination with DNA metabarcoding of the microplankton (< 50 μm) community. In contrast with other novel, high-throughoutput assessment techniques like the FlowCam and FlowCytometry, the combination of microscopy and metabarcoding albeit more time-consuming, offers detailed insights into the taxonomic structure of the phytoplankton community. These two complimentary techniques are therefore superior to resolve uncertainties surrounding the biodiversity of phytoplankton in the Belgian part of the North Sea.","OrigAbstract":null,"OrigDescr":null,"Comments":null,"ReleaseDate":null,"ReleaseDate0":null,"OrigDescrLang":null,"EmbargoDate":null,"OrigDescrLangNL":null,"OrigLangCode":null,"OrigLangCodeExtended":null,"OrigLangID":null,"DescrCompFlag":0,"DescrTransFlag":0,"Citation":"Lagaisse, R.; Flanders Marine Institute: Belgium; (2020): Phytoplankton biodiversity in the Belgian part of the North Sea: a microscopic and molecular inventory","AccessConstraints":null,"UDate":"2023-07-27","CDate":"2022-01-10","CurrencyDate":null,"RevisionDate":null,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-05-14 01:44:00.153333","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"CheckedFlag":0,"PublicFlag":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"MarineFlag":1,"FreshFlag":0,"BrackishFlag":0,"TerrestrialFlag":0,"StatusID":1,"DasType":"Data","DasTypeID":1,"DasOrigin":"Research: field survey","Progress":"Completed","AccessConstraint":"Attribution (CC BY)","AccConstrEN":"Attribution (CC BY)","AccConstrDisplay":"<a rel=\"license\" href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/\" target=\"_blank\"><img alt=\"Creative Commons License\" style=\"border:0px;height:15px;width:80px;vertical-align:middle;\" src=\"https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia/images/cc/by.png\" /></a> This dataset is licensed under a <a rel=\"license\" href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/\" target=\"_blank\">Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License</a>.","License":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","AccConstrDescription":"This license lets others distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon your work, even commercially, as long as they credit you for the original creation.
