Descreve-se a base de dados relacional, para armazenamento e consulta de dados biológicos, relacionados com a distribuição vertical e geográfica de espécies oceânicas, macroplanctónicas e micronectónicas, incluindo peixes e crustáceos. Os dados foram obtidos a partir de amostragens realizadas durante as duas últimas décadas no Atlântico Nordeste, entre o Equador e os 60°N e entre o litoral das costas Europeias e Africanas até aos 33°W de longitude, excepcionalmente até aos 62°W. Os arrastos estratificados foram amostrados continuamente desde a superfície até à profundidade máxima de 1500/2000 m e excepcionalmente até aos 5000 m. Além da descrição da base de dados e dos parâmetros relacionados com as espécies e dados de amostragem, demonstra-se a facilidade de consulta, recorrendo-se a exemplos com os tipos de dados que estão disponíveis.
ABSTRACT: The relational data base used for the storage and retrieval of biological data relating to the vertical and geographic distribution of open oceanic midwater species of macroplankton and micronekton, including fish and crustaceans, is described. The data have been derived from sampling carried out during the last two decades in the North-East Atlantic between the Equator and 60°N and from just off the European and African coasts mainly to 33°W and exceptionally to 62°W. Hauls sampled contiguously strata between the surface and maximum depth of 1500/2000 m and exceptionally to 5000 m. The data base and the parameters associated with species and sampling data are described, retrieval available.
