Description 
Summary

The PinnaSpot dataset describes the Physico-chemical and biological analysis of seawater for Bokakotorska Bay, Adriatic Sea, from the 23rd August to the 14th December 2016. The project will monitor the environmental parameters of the sites inhabited by P. nobilis and study the annual variations of temperature, salinity and O2 concentration in water. The Scientific research project PinnaSPOT is the product of international collaboration established between the Institute of Marine Biology, University of Montenegro (leading partner), The Catholic University of Valencia ”San Vicente Martyr” - Marine Research Institute IMEDMAR (Spain), the Oceanographic institute Paul Ricard (France), as well as the Petrovic Njegos Foundation from Montenegro as honorary partner.
