RV CORYSTES 01/2000 High Resolution Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) Data

The data in this archive were collected from CEFAS (Or DFR) research cruises. 
They broadly cover the European Shelf with some data from the Iberian Abysal 
Plain. Data were collected using the lowered CTD rosette system which is used 
when the vessel is stationary. Usually bottles were fired at particular depths 
and samples taken for calibration. In early years only a limited set of 
parameters were collected. Notably Pressure (Depth), Temperature and 
Conductivity (CTD). From Conductivity Salinity can be calculated using the 
UNESCO 1978,1983 formulations . In subsequent years more sensors have been 
added, notably fluorometers, Optical back scatter or transmissometers and 
Light (PAR, photo synthetically available radiation). The exact configuration 
varies between cruises and this is reflected in the data format of the output 
files.

Data was collected from research vessels on station, a profile from the 
surface to near the sea bed is undertaken. The down cast data should be a 
clean profile. Water bottles for sample collection and calibration are fired 
on the up cast.

Data products covering precipitation and temperature suitable for purposes of aquaculture under climate change scenarios

Results from the CERES (Climate change and European aquatic RESources) 
project, investigating the challenges and opportunities of climate change 
faced by European aquaculture. Several aspects were covered that data was 
produced for. 

1) Precipitation: data extracted from the PML (Plymouth Marine Labs) model 
data portal, projecting future rain fall, comparing the present day time slice 
(2000-2020) with a mid-century time slice (2040-2060) under RCP 
(Representative Concentration Pathway) 4.5 and RCP 8.5 for each of the CERES 
countries. 

2) Temperature suitability for farming: maps stating the the number of days 
that temperatures are suitable over the course of a year for farming a range 
of aquaculture species (salt water finfish, freshwater finfish) across Europe 
in the present day time slice compared to the mid-century time slice under RCP 
4.5 and RCP 8.5. 

3) Temperature suitability for aquaculture disease: maps stating the the 
number of days that temperatures are suitable over the course of a year where 
aquaculture species (salt water finfish, freshwater finfish) farmed across 
Europe can be infected by certain diseases in the present day time slice 
compared to the mid-century time slice under RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5.

Raw data from the two choice experiment surveys at Flamborough and Bempton, 
East Yorkshire on the economic value of specific benefits of marine protected 
areas. Data is numerical and column heading is coded according to responses to 
the questions in the questionnaire. Some answers are categorical variables

Survey : TELL/02/1964 (part of CEFAS Historic surveys)

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the CEFAS Historic surveys;

Station and biological data collected during research surveys carried out by 
Cefas (formerly Directorate of Fisheries) in seas around the UK, mostly in the 
North Sea, since 1902. The survey hauls are not laid out systematically as a 
grid, as in current International Bottom Trawl Surveys (IBTS) and are widely 
distributed over (especially) southern and central North Sea areas. Gears and 
protocols were not standardised throughout, due to the long term nature of the 
series. Surveys took place in each season. Data are lacking for the periods of 
both World Wars. In some periods (e.g. the early 1900s), all species caught 
were recorded, whereas in other periods (e.g. 1920s-30s), only the key 
commercial species (e.g., Plaice, Sole and Cod) were recorded systematically. 
Note that some surveys targeted particular species (notably Plaice).

Survey took place between 20/01/1964 and 29/01/1964 on Tellina

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Otter Trawl BORIS FISH/PRAWN 600 Mesh, 20mm Liner, Rubbers

Survey operations were undertaken on 4 stations

CLiP Vanuatu Microplastics in water 2018

This dataset contains 2 csv files. One file contains data on microplastic 
abundance expressed in number of particles from 12 transects in Port Vila Bay 
and Mele Bay in Efate Island (Vanuatu) in 2018 with indication of volume and 
surface surveyed and transect info (duration, coordinates, comments). The file 
also contains information on blank used and contamination checks. The other 
file contains spectrum analysis of particles carried out with a ATR-FTIR. A 
READ-ME text file contains the description of columns content for the two csv 
files and a brief description of particles that have been analysed with the 
FTIR and photographed . A .zip file includes two folders with pictures of 
microplastics (particles with size less than 5 mm, Arthur et al., 2008) and 
macrolitter in diameter (particles with size greater than 5 mm).
