Samples were collected between May 1996 and June 1999 from four offshore stations around the coast of the UK (Off Tyne, Off Humber, Celtic Deep and Lyme Bay). Data including sediment granulometry and trace metal concentrations is also available.

The corer was deployed four times at each site. From each deployment, one whole sediment core was retained for meiofauna analysis and the top 5 cm of another core from the same deployment was retained for particle size and chemical analyses. At each station, five macrofauna samples were collected using a 0.1m2 Day Grab. MEDIN 3.1.1
