Scientific survey catch data: Bentho-demersal assemblages of the Gulf of Lion (North-western Mediterranean) from 1957 to 1960

This dataset illustrates a study of the trawlable seabed of the Gulf of Lion, which took place over four years between 1957 and 1960. An inventory of the bentho-demersal community was carried out by bottom trawling. Measurements of total weight and length were taken as well as sex determination. This study was carried out with the research vessel Président Théodore Tissier up to 1959 and with the research vessel La Thalassa in 1960.
