Secchi depth is measured on a monthly basis in the Gulf of Trieste – time series station (station C1) as a general measure of seawater transparency.General information can be found at: http://nettuno.ogs.trieste.it/ilter/BIO/index.html

Dataset provides chlorophyll-a concentrations measured in Lake Santo Parmense in 1991. Water samples for chlorophyll-a analysis were collected by means of a Ruttner Bottle at different depths over the whole water column at the point of maximum depth of the lake. Samples were analysed according to Strickland & Parsons (1968).

The data are for 2 lakes in Danube Delta SI000709: Rosu ( 45° 3'14.80"N 29°34'30.84"E) and Baclanesti ( 45°14'53.86"N 29° 7'44.22"E). Monthly data from 1975 to 1994 for Rosu and from 1982 to 1993 for Baclanesti. The lakes are tipical shallow floodplain lakes, their level being highly dependent of the Danube discharge. Variable list: CP,Deptht, NH4N, NO3N, Ntot, O2D, pH, PO4, Ptot, S_org, SDT, SI, Temp (water).

The dataset refers to annual (2011) precipitation (sum) measured at 4 forest CONECOFOR LTER plots

Vertical profiles of underwater photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) are collected on a monthly basis in the Gulf of Trieste – time series station (station C1). The site is part of the LTER-North Adriatic site.Data are used to characterize the light field and light extinction in the coastal Long Term Ecosystem Research station of the Gulf of Trieste, in the northernmost part of the Adriatic Sea and of the Mediterranean basin.

Dataset provides chlorophyll-a concentrations measured in Lake Santo Parmense in period 2001-2003. Water samples for chlorophyll-a analysis were collected by means of a Ruttner Bottle at different depths over the whole water column at the point of maximum depth of the lake. Samples were analysed according to Strickland & Parsons (1968).

The dataset refers to annual mean (2011) air temperature measured at 4 forest CONECOFOR LTER plots, by automatic devices

Dataset provides chlorophyll-a concentrations measured in Lake Santo Parmense in period 2007-2010. Water samples for chlorophyll-a analysis were collected by means of a Ruttner Bottle at different depths over the whole water column at the point of maximum depth of the lake. Samples were analysed according to Strickland & Parsons (1968).

Dataset provides ammonia concentrations measured in Lake Santo Parmense during the period 2007-2010. Water samples were collected by means of a Ruttner bottle at different depths over the whole water column at the point of maximum depth of the lake. Samples were analysed spectrophotometrically according to Koroleff (1970).

Vertical profiles of temperature are collected on a monthly basis in the Gulf of Trieste – time series station (station C1), using a CTD multiparametric probe. The site is part of the LTER-North Adriatic site. Data are used to characterize the temporal dynamic of hydrological properties in the coastal Long Term Ecosystem Research station of the Gulf of Trieste, in the northernmost part of the Adriatic Sea and of the Mediterranean basin.
