Survey : AMAR 1/93 (part of Solent Bass Pre-recruit Survey (FSS: SOLENT))

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the Solent Bass Pre-recruit 
Survey (FSS: SOLENT);

There are over 50 surveys in this series which began in 1983. The aim of these 
are to provide abundance indices of 2-4 year old bass. The catch density of 
other species taken is also recorded. The survey was undertaken twice yearly 
during May and September for most years up to 2009. Since then one September 
survey each year has taken place.

Survey took place between 23/05/1993 and 27/05/1993 on Angelle Marie

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Otter Trawl Solent Bass Trawl 5 fm Headline, 6 & 8 metre bridles, 40mm 
    Liner

Survey operations were undertaken on 46 stations

42 different species were caught on this survey

Survey : HUXL/88/1907 (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 20/04/1907 and 29/04/1907 on Huxley

Equipment used during this survey :


-   Grimsby style otter trawl Codend with fine mesh netting

Benthic macrofauna and sediment particle size data from 1969 to the present from multiple sources stored on the OneBenthic database

The OneBenthic initiative brings together disparate benthic datasets (i.e. 
seabed macrofauna and sediment particle size) in one cloud-based PostgreSQL 
platform. The resulting high-quality, standardised dataset is used to generate 
new science, and new innovative and collaborative ways of working. Outputs are 
shared via open-access publications and a suite of interactive web apps 
(https://openscience.cefas.co.uk/). For further details of the initiative 
click here: `https://sway.office.com/HM5VkWvBoZ86atYP?ref=Link`_. This 
metadata record relates to the entire dataset, rather than its individual 
components and covers a timespan from 1969 to the present.

Nematode assemblages from field-samlping and lab based paint-derived tributyltin (TBT) contamination experiments from the Creeksea estuary, March 2001

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 March 2001.

 The csv file "nematodes_field_creeksea_2001" contains data from 
field-collected sediments, while the csv entitled 
"nematodes_lab_experiemnts_creeksea_2001" contains data from experimental 
treatments sumulating the deposition of dredged material. The Read Me file 
contains discriptions of the microcosms from the deposition experiements. 

Data detailing biomass (and size spectra) of the dominant nematode species 
*Cyatholaimus gracilis,*sediment granulometry and total organic carbon 
concentrations of bulk sediment is also available.
