Hyperbenthic communities of the North Sea [Hyperbenthische gemeenschappen van de Noordzee] Citation Dewicke, A; Marine Biology Section (MARBIOL) – Ugent, Belgium; (2014): Hyperbenthic communities of the North Sea. https://marineinfo.org/id/dataset/137 Contact: Dewicke, Ann Availability: This dataset is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. Description The spatio-temporal distribution of the hyperbenthos communities of the North Sea as well as the regulating factors shaping these communities were studied. more The spatio-temporal distribution of the hyperbenthos communities of the North Sea as well as the regulating factors shaping these communities were studied. This was approached by examining species composition, density, biomass and diversity of the hyperbenthos within well-chosen areas of the North Sea.
