Sampling, Processing and Quality Control Methods

Step by Step Procedures
Step 1:
Description:	trawl Types of nets used: Midwater trawl, purse seine, bottom trawl (tartana), and bottom trawl (romagnola) Data citation: Miloš, Č., 2009. Biometry and elemental analysis of scyphomedusae in the Gulf of Trieste with emphasis on Rhizostoma pulmo. M.SC. thesis, University of Zagreb: 81 pp.
Sampling Area And Frequency:	Notes on longitude/ latitude values for JEDI:
Sampling Description:	Not all coordinates were provided by the author. When a latitude/longitude was missing, a point in the Northern Adriatic was chosen near the study site (45.0261 N, 13.07172 E). If a coordinate was taken, but not visible on the map provided a longitude/latitude was estimated (45.57N 13.55E).
