Partrac Ltd. were contracted by SSE Renewables to deploy three Waverider wave buoys and two ADCP frames at the proposed Islay Offshore Wind Farm site. The objective of the study was to provide wave data that will informthe physical processes modelling and engineering design. The Waverider buoys were deployed on 12th February 2012 until the 14th August 2012, with the ADCP frames being deployed in July 2012. Deliverables were in the format of reports and excel spreadsheets containing raw data. This dataset package contains the wave rider buoy reports, including raw data, QC'd data, failed data, flagged data and statistics.
Dredge Fishing Effort

This dataset shows the distribution of fishing effort by fishing vessels according to the gear type used - dredge fishing. Fishing effort is defined as the time spent engaged in fishing operations or time spent at sea, this time may be multiplied by a measure of fishing capacity, e.g. engine power. In this dataset fishing effort is measured as average hours spent actively fishing per kilometre square, per year. Data from years 2014 to 2018 was used to produce this data product for the Marine Institute publication the “Atlas of Commercial Fisheries around Ireland, third edition“ (https://oar.marine.ie/handle/10793/1432).

Microplastic Measurement Journey around the World from the Volvo Ocean Race 2017/2018 Turn the Tide on Plastic and AkzoNobel by GEOMAR Kiel

The provided unique microplastic data was generated from the Leg 0,1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11 and 12 of the Volvo Ocean Race 2017/18. The samples were collected onboard "Turn the Tide on Plastic" (all Legs) and team "AkzoNobel" (Leg 7 and 9 till 11). 
The extraction of the stainless-steel filter cakes was performed in reference to Lenz et al. 2015 with ultrasonication. The solutions were measured with a microfluidic flow capillary Raman spectrometer in reflection mode and further analysed with holography.
The data variables include GPS position, time, filter volume [L], measured microplastic concentration [particles/m³], error of microplastic concentration [particles/m³], Leg Number and yacht (1 = Turn the Tide on Plastic, 2 = AkzoNobel). Related in-situ oceanographic measurements are uploaded to the NOAA NCEI S2N database (NCEI Accession 0170967). The instrument used for underway measurements was the specially built OceanPack RACE manufactured by SubCtech GmbH in Kiel. The connected microplastic filtration unit and lab analysis prototype for microplastic (Raman) was built by bbe Moldaenke.
The mixed-layer surface water (~1.5 m depending on the heel of the yachts) was sampled in the Mediterranean Sea, the North and South Atlantic Ocean, South Indian Ocean, West and South Pacific Ocean and others from 2017-10-22 to 2018-07-07. Measurements were performed by GEOMAR and acknowledgements go to the Cluster of Excellence Future Ocean (Funding for the Project and Position of Dr.-Ing. Sören B.

Dati Ambientali Marini

I Dati Ambientali Marini sono  dati inerenti l’andamento di parametri rilevati in mare tramite campagne oceanografiche o stazioni fisse e mobili di rilevamento. Particolare importanza rivestono i Programmi di Monitoraggio Marino-Costiero effettuati con le Regioni costiere nel 1990 - 1993  per il solo Mar Adriatico, nel 1996 - 2000 in ambito nazionale (Sicilia esclusa) e nel 2001-2006 in ambito nazionale. Attualmente è possibile visualizzare attraverso il GIS i dati riferiti all’anno 2001 e successivi. Il database attuale contiene circa 5 milioni di misure, di cui oltre tre milioni e mezzo condivise con APAT , ICRAM e due milioni e duecentomila pubblicate in continuo in internet. 

Grande attenzione è stata data alle attività relative al trasferimento dei dati dalle Regioni al Si.Di.Mar. In questa sede i dati vengono controllati mediante una procedura automatica che evidenzia eventuali aberrazioni ed effettua una verifica di congruità di ogni singolo parametro in funzione dei valori pregressi (se esistenti), registrati in ciascuna stazione in precedenti monitoraggi. 

I dati, appositamente elaborati, vengono diffusi in rete, in modo da permetterne la massima fruizione.

Fanno parte dei Dati Ambientali Marini anche gli elementi di analisi e i dati sulla classificazione delle acque marine

Acque
I dati ottenuti dalle analisi effettuate ogni 15 giorni sulle variabili indagate sono elaborati statisticamente con indice denominato CAM e visualizzati attraverso una grafica elementare. Le acque sono distinte in tre classi di qualità che caratterizzano rispettivamente: 

acque incontaminate;
acque con diverso grado di eutrofizzazione, ma ecologicamente integre;
acque eutrofizzate con evidenze di alterazioni ambientali anche di origine antropica.

Un grafico illustra, inoltre, l'andamento dei parametri monitorati lungo la colonna d'acqua. 

Plancton
La componente planctonica è rappresentata mediante grafici a torta con l'indicazione percentuale dei gruppi tassonomici rappresentativi. 

È possibile inoltre, dalla prima campagna di giugno 2002, visualizzare la lista di specie rilevata per ogni gruppo tassonomico. Le stazioni di campionamento del plancton sono coincidenti con le stazioni sottocosta del monitoraggio Acque.

Sedimenti
I risultati delle analisi semestrali sui sedimenti sono rappresentati da istogrammi e le stazioni di campionamento sono prossime (e in alcuni casi coincidenti) a quelle del monitoraggio Acque.

Biota - Molluschi
I risultati delle analisi semestrali sul biota sono riportati in forma di istogrammi. Le stazioni di campionamento sono prossime alla linea di costa e a quelle del monitoraggio Acque.

Benthos 
La matrice benthos è indagata con cadenza annuale, tramite lo studio della fanerogama marina Posidonia oceanica e del macrozoobenthos dei fondi mobili. Al momento i risultati di queste analisi sono in corso di verifica, per essere successivamente pubblicati.

invertebratezoology

The UF Invertebrate collection holds ~510,000 databased lots of mollusks and marine invertebrates. It began as a Malacology collection almost 100 years ago and ~85% of the holdings are still mollusks. Since 2000 the collection was expanded to cover all invertebrate phyla, focusing on marine taxa. Today it holds >40,000 species from 28 phyla.
Marine Nature Conservation Review (MNCR) and associated benthic marine data held and managed by English Nature

This dataset includes the survey data that were commissioned and collected by English Nature. Note these data complement other datasets held by JNCC and the other country agencies that used the same methodology. However, this dataset comprises those data that were paid for by EN directly. The data contributed to the MNCR programme which was initiated to provide a comprehensive baseline of information on marine habitats and their associated species around the coast of Britain which would aid coastal zone and sea-use management and to contribute to the identification of areas of marine natural heritage importance. The focus of MNCR work was on benthic habitats (often referred to as 'biotopes') in intertidal and inshore (typically within 3nm) subtidal areas.
Methods of data capture: The majority of data were collected using methods described in the MNCR Rational and Methods report (Hiscock 1996). Broadly, this encompassed surveying a range of sites within a geographical area to sample and describe the variety of habitats present (sampling habitats in different substrata, depths, wave exposures, current regimes, salinity regimes and so on). Each habitat was sampled using semi-quantitative recording techniques (SACFOR abundance scales) for recording epibiota on rocky habitats.

Geographical Coverage: This dataset relates to England. Note however that the dataset "Marine Nature Conservation Review (MNCR) and associated benthic marine data held and managed by JNCC" also includes equivalent and complementary data from England.  

Data Quality: The data have been extensively checked during the course of the creation of the various reports produced by the MNCR programme. This included the MNCR Area Summary report series which describes the marine habitats in particular regions around the UK and the creation of the national marine habitat (biotope) classification system. Through this work the vast majority of the anomalies and errors in the data should have been identified but some may still remain.
Sammlung Malakologie - SNSD

The Malacology - SNSD collection is part of the SeSAM collections of Senckenberg. This collection is kept in the Natural History Museum in Dresden and contains mollusc specimens from all over the world.
The mollusc collection houses approximately 1 million specimens of Gastropoda, Bivalvia, Cephalopoda, Polyplacophora, and Scaphopoda. The material originates from world-wide distributed localities with a special focus on Central Europe, South East Asia, the Russian Far East , Western Africa, and the Caribbean.
Historical important material is that of Theodor - Paul Reibsch (Dresden), Kurt Büttner (Zwickau), and Arthur Schlechter (Kamenz), which provides the probable most important archive of Saxonian land- and freshwater molluscs, completed by a substantial collection of freshwater pearl mussels.
