Description
Monitoring and evaluation of the quality of the marine environment of the Belgian Continental Shelf and the Scheldt estuary. more
Nutrients, salinity, temperature, suspended matter, dissolved oxygen, chlorophyll-a, phaeopigment, TOC, POC, DON and optical parameters are measured in the water column.
