Title

Macrobenthos communities in Maizuru and Tango Bays, and water quality in the adjacent rivers in Kyoto Prefecture in summer from 2006 to 2021

Abstract

Under the guidance of Field Science Education and Research Center of Kyoto University, Kyoto Prefectural Nishimaizuru Senior High School has conducted annual surveys in riverine and coastal environments in late July since 2006 (in early August only in 2020). The survey areas consisted mainly of Isazu River, Maizuru Bay, and Tango Bay, Sea of Japan. Although the survey data were analyzed and summarized by high school students every year, the publication of the whole data sets will contribute to meta-analyses among regions and/or periods, and to environmental education at other high schools. Here we provide the following data sets: 1) surface water quality including temperature, pH, electric conductivity, turbidity, and concentrations of dissolved oxygen, dissolved organic carbon, suspended solid, and nutrients in 2006-2021; 2) species composition and density of coastal macrobenthos including fish and invertebrates in 2012-2021; 3) latitudes and longitudes of coastal surveys in 2012-2021; 4) vertical profiles of coastal waters in 2012-2021. As an example of the application of the data sets, interannual changes in nutrient concentrations and macrobenthos communities were analyzed.
