Abstract

This dataset contains experimental data on the effect of artificial marine snow on marine benthic invertebrates, water quality measurements, water nutrient measurements, oxygen measurements, and data on oil biodegradation (n-alkanes). Excel sheet with raw data from the experiment: exposure conditions, biota response, chemistry, and observations are included. This dataset supports the publication: van Eenennaam, J.S., Rohal, M., Montagna, P.A., Radović, J.R., Oldenburg, T.B., Romero, I.C., Murk, A.J. and Foekema, E.M. (2019). Ecotoxicological benthic impacts of experimental oil-contaminated marine snow deposition. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 141, 164-175. doi: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2019.02.025
