Summary
Abstract: Meiobenthos of subtidal sandbanks on the Belgian Continental Shelf This dataset is a result of sampling meiobenthos and sediment from all sandbanks on the BCS during 1997 and 1998. Nematodes for 4 sandbanks were identified to species level and biomass was measured. The goal is to identify the granulometric variables structuring meiobenthic and nematode communities. To develop monitoring tools using nematodes.

Quality The vertical accuracy of the DEM is estimated at about 100-130 m over the rugged mountainous areas, better than 2 m for the ice shelves, better than 15m for the interior ice sheet and about 35 m for the steeper ice sheet perimeter.
