Full description

Marine meiofauna community data from Casey Station area in the Windmill Islands, east Antarctica. Data comes from samples taken by divers in 2015 from 10 locations around the Casey area. Samples were taken with small corers which consisted of modified 60 mL syringes with internal diameter of 28 mm. These syringes were inserted into the sediment to a depth of 10 cm, then extracted and the lower end capped. Samples were preserved in 4% formalin. All meiofauna were counted and identified to at least phylum level. Copepods were identified to family level and nematodes were identified to genus level.

There are a total of 83 samples, 8 from each location, except for 4 at O’Brien Bay-1 and 12 at Shannon Bay and Brown Bay Middle.

The data consists of an excel spreadsheet with four worksheets.
1.    Location data – latitude, longitude, depth
2.    Phylum/Class/Order counts per sample
3.    Copepod family counts per sample
4.    Nematode genus counts per sample

Notes

Purpose
Sampling was conducted using a nested hierarchical design encompassing three spatial scales: (1) locations, separated by kilometres; (2) within each location, two sites were typically established, approximately 100 m apart; and (3) within each site, there were at least two plots (2 m diameter) spaced roughly 10 m apart. Replicate samples were collected from each sampling plot for meiofauna, macrofauna and environmental analysis.
