Description

Within the framework of the project OPKK “Mapping of coastal and seabed habitats in the area of Adriatic sea under the national jurisdiction”, data on coastal and marine benthic habitats and species was gathered during the field research in Croatia. This dataset includes observations of marine species collected by SCUBA diving and remotely operated vehicle (ROV) during 2022 and 2023.

Data Records

The data in this occurrence 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 9 records.

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.

Versions

The table below shows only published versions of the resource that are publicly accessible.

Study Extent The area of the Adriatic Sea under Croatian jurisdiction
Quality Control Species identifications are verified by an expert

Method step description:

  1. Experts for concerned taxonomic groups carried out SCUBA diving field research. Experts for concerned taxonomic groups analysed seabed video data collected by remotely operated vehicle (ROV). Records were structured in the table form and interpreted and entered in the appropriate format and mapped to DarwinCore. Species identifications are validated by an expert.
