Description
Presence, density and biomass data for ichtyofauna and epibenthos sampled in the KRONOS discharge area (Dutch Continental Shelf) between 1976 and 1981 and comparison of these data with a coastal reference zone choosen in the Belgian Part of the North Sea. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: see refIDs 205648, 205649, 205661. more

Species list of epibenthos and fish in and around the Kronos discharge area in 1979, 1980 and 1981. Density, biomass, dominance and diversity of fish and epibenthos from 1976 to 1981. Kronos densities of most important groups of epibenthos and fish and some commercial fish and shrimp are compared with those sampled at some choosen reference points (Oostende, Zeebrugge, Koksijde, Nieuwpoort and Blankenberge).
