The data is the integration of three different subdatasets i.e. the impact of dredging on benthic macrofauna (1979 data), comparison of macrobenthos between major European tidal estuaries (1991-92 data) and ecological monitoring of macrobenthos in an area affected by the effluents of a nuclear power plant (2004 data) Lineage
