Description
Quantitative and qualitative study on mesozooplankton species in the Sea Scheldt between 1995 and 1996. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Van Mieghem, R. (1996). Mesozooplankton in de Zeeschelde. BSc Thesis. Vrije Universiteit Brussel: Brussel. 28, + annexes pp. more

Between 1995 and 1996, 31 samples were taken to study the mesozooplankton community of the Sea Scheldt. Surface samples of 50 L were collected and filtered using a 50 µm planktonnet.
