Survey : CLIO/9/1963 (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 17/04/1963 and 25/04/1963 on Clione

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Otter Trawl Dutch Herring Trawl IYFS Spec.

Survey operations were undertaken on 33 stations

Survey : EHOLT/03/1952 (part of Historic Arctic Survey Series)

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Historic Arctic Survey 
Series;

*Gadus morhua* (Atlantic Cod) stocks in the Barents Sea are currently at 
levels not seen since the 1950s. Causes for the population increase last 
century, and understanding of whether such large numbers will be maintained in 
the future, are unclear. To explore this, we digitised and interrogated 
historical cod catch and diet datasets from the Barents Sea. Data includes 
temporal and spatial information, cod catch data and length distributions, and 
hydrographic data.

Survey : INA K 1/94 (part of Blackwater Herring Survey (FSS: INA K HER))

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Blackwater Herring Survey 
(FSS: INA K HER);

A series of cruises carried out from 1989 to 2009 each November on the INA-K 
in the Thames Estuary. The aims of which were to assess the state of herring
(*Clupea harengus*) stocks through measurements of length samples and by 
ageing a stratified selection of fish. The latter was also to determine the 
stock split between North Sea and Thames fish as there is a great deal of 
mixing of stocks in the area. Stock identification was done by a combination 
of first year growth observed in the otolith and the maturity stage of the 
fish.

Nematode assemblages from field-samlping and lab based deposition experiments from the Creeksea estuary, October 1998

Data consists of presense data of nematode worms in the form of count data. 
Bulk sediment samples were collected from the Creeksea estuary (south east 
coast of the UK) in October 1998. The csv file entitled 
"nematodes_creeksea_field_samples_1998" contains data from these 
field-collected sediments, while while the csv entitled 
"nematodes_lab_experiemnts_creeksea_1998" contains data from experimental 
treatments sumulating the deposition of dredged material. Please see the Read 
Me file for a description of the contions within the laboratory experimental 
microcosms.

Data detailing sediment granulometry and trace metal concentrations of the 
bulk sediment is also available.

CLiP South Africa Microplastics in the Port of Durban 2019

This dataset contains two csv files. The first one 
(South_Africa_Port_Durban_Microplastics.csv) reports the results of the study 
carried out in the Port of Durban in 2019. The file contains water measurement 
from CTD casts, microplastic abundance in water sampled by microplastic pump
, microplastic abundance in sediment and particulate size analysis (PSA) 
results from Van Veen grab samples. GPS coordinates and time of deployment are 
reported for each measurement. CTD measured temperature, salinity and 
turbulence of the water. For microplastic pump casts, the amount of water 
filtered, the size of the four sieves used and the number of particles found 
on each filter are reported. Data from the grabs include PSA results and the 
number of particles found in the replicates (5g each) from each grab with lab 
blank values. A series of atmospheric blanks was also obtained leaving a jar 
open during sampling operation and microplastics abundances are reported. The 
csv second file (South_Africa_Port_Durban_Microplastics_FTIR) contains the 
profiles of the ATR-FT-IR spectrum analysis of plastic pieces found in the 
water samples. A .zip folder contains additional 18 FTIR profiles from water 
samples for which only a .tif image is available. A README text file 
contains the legend of the columns of the two csv files.
