Dataset

Description

This dataset contains eDNA metabarcoding data of fish species detected in 17 locations in the Belgian Part of the North Sea (BPNS). The seawater samples were collected during a field campaigns in 2022. 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 eDNA converter tool.]
