Description:
Biological Data: Mnemiopsis leidyi biomass and abundance Were other gelatinous measured or not: Yes (Aurelia aurita, Pleurobrachia pileus) Area of sampling: Southern Black Sea Net type: Hensen net Mesh size: 300 µm Net mouth opening: 0.7 m Sampling, analysis and processing methods: Hauling speed: 1.5m/s. Samples were sorted out and freshly counted and weighed onboard with hand-balance. Sampling volume was estimated by multiplying the mouth area with the wire length. Data originator: Dr. Ahmet E.Kideys Data provider: Dr. Ahmet E.Kideys Quality control: Dr. Ahmet E.Kideys.
Parameters list: Gelatinous plankton, Phytoplankton, Zooplankton, DOW, H2S, NO3-N+NO2-N, PO4, Si, Total Chl-a, SD, Density, Salinity, Temperature, ITS-90
