Benthic macrofauna and sediment particle size data from 1969 to the present from multiple sources stored on the OneBenthic database

The OneBenthic initiative brings together disparate benthic datasets (i.e. seabed macrofauna and sediment particle size) in one cloud-based PostgreSQL platform. The resulting high-quality, standardised dataset is used to generate new science, and new innovative and collaborative ways of working. Outputs are shared via open-access publications and a suite of interactive web apps (https://openscience.cefas.co.uk/).

This metadata record relates to the entire dataset, rather than its individual components and covers a timespan from 1969 to the present. .. _`https://sway.office.com/hm5vkwvboz86atyp?ref=link`: https://sway.office.com/HM5VkWvBoZ86atYP?ref=Link
