OBIS Secretariat DNADerivedData Open in mapper Explore occurrences

This dataset contains eDNA metabarcoding data of fish species detected at 9 locations within the coastal area of the Belgian Part of the North Sea (BPNS). The seawater samples were collected monthly from August 2021 to August 2023 at the fixed stations. The fish species were identified using 12S eDNA metabarcoding. The dataset includes amplicon sequence variants and their associated metadata. [This dataset was processed using the GBIF Metabarcoding Data Toolkit.]
