Description
In the framework of the OMEX-programme (Ocean Margin Exchange, CEC-MAST II), data were collected on the metazoan meiobenthos along the continental slope of the Goban Spur. more

These data fill the gap in knowledge about the meiobenthic communities along the continental slope systems in the Northeast Atlantic.
