Description
Data represent a 31-year long time series (1975-2006) of weekly measurements of zooplankton abundances at the List Tidal Basin (Northern Wadden Sea). Part of the data were used to indicate that zooplankton abundance is not decreasing and that higher winter and spring temperatures might lead to higher annual zooplankton abundances.
