Description
Phytoplankton and microzooplankton collected near mussel farm activities in the Gulf of Trieste - North Adriatic Sea in the framework of SosteMiTS project financed by Friuli Venezia Giulia Region. Data collected in 2008-2009.
Data Records
The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 32 records.
2 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

| Study Area Description | Gulf of Trieste, North Adriatic Sea |
| Design Description | Bi-monthly sampling was carried out in three mussel farms along the coastal area of the Gulf of Trieste. The study was carried out from May 2008 to January 2009. |
The personnel involved in the project:
- Originator
Sampling Methods
Niskin bottle samples at 3m depth. At Santa Croce, SI, SE stations, samples were collected at 3m and 10m depth.
| Study Extent | Bi-monthly sampling from May 2008 to January 2009 in 6 sites close to mussel farms. Three sites were located outside the mussel farms and three inside. |

Method step description:
- Samples were fixed with Ca(HCO3)2-buffered formaldehyde (0.8% final concentration) and cell abundance and species composition of phytoplankton were estimated according to Utermöhl’s method (1958), using an inverted microscope equipped with phase contrast, at 200-320-400x final magnifications. Variable volumes of seawater (25 and 50 ml, depending on cell concentrations) were settled for at least 48 h. Biomass is derived from cellular Carbon content and cell biovolume. Biovolume was calculated according to Edler (1979) and Hillebrand et al. (1999). Cell volumes were converted to carbon content using the formula introduced by Menden-Deuer and Lessard (2000).
