Concentrations of metals, organochlorines in mussels and oysters from the Mediterranean coast, from RNO RINBIO data.

Layer of Polygons representing the distribution of organisms described in the bibliography and obtained by sampling in the canyons of the French Mediterranean.

The data is provided as a layer of points representing submersible dives in the French Mediterranean.

Division of French metropolitan territories to define the zones contributing to the pollutant flow carried by rivers to the sea.

Layer of points representing the abundance weighted per canyon of observed organisms during submersible dives in the Mediterranean continental canyons.

Layer of points representing the abundance weighted per canyon of observed organisms during submersible dives in the Mediterranean continental canyons.

Concentrations of metals, organochlorines in surficial sediments (1st cm) in the Mediterranean coast, from RNO data.

The consolidated database shows the spatial distribution of sampling effort by French and Monaco oceanographic campaigns. The measures are divided between the mouth of the Rhone, the Gulf of Lions, and Ligurian and Provence seas. The database contains 55 campaigns or time series, over 5 decades from 1962 to 2010. 28 are oceanographic campaigns of spatial strategy (some were revisited), 14 of temporal strategy, 2 of spatio-temporal strategy, and 1 one-time campaign. In total, it has 24,886 entries including: 19,027 nitrate data - 13,826 nitrite data - 11,452 ammonium data – 20,936 phosphates data – 14,605 silicates data. The majority (92%) of associated temperature and salinity data is available.

The data is provided as a layer of points representing the samples taken (operations) in the French Mediterranean. The lists of species identified corresponding to these sample points are in the Biocean database.

Species distribution is provided as a layer of points representing in situ observations of organisms during submersible dives into the canyons of the Mediterranean mainland.
