Description
The dataset combines historic temperature & salinity measurements recorded during Belgian monitoring campaigns in the Southern Bight of the North Sea and the English Channel. Samples were taken with the Ville d'Anvers, Victor Billiet, Victoria, Hinders, Zinnia,.... The time series is a compilation of measurements recovered from the original datasheets found in the ZWI Archive, data downloaded from ICES and data published in Van Meel 1972. La Mer du Nord méridionale, le Pas-de-Calais et la Manche: essai d'écologie marine, principalement en ce qui concerne le microplancton: II. Etude planctonique. Data were digitized, integrated and published by VLIZ in the frame of the LifeWatch project.
