Methods
Demersal fishes from Guanabara Bay were collected in two research periods: (i) seven points sampled fortnightly (two hauls per month during 30 minutes) from July 2005 to June 2007 and; (ii) only two points sampled monthly (three hauls per month) from July 2013 to June 2015. Please note that this represent the first monitoring period, as the full period had distinct sampling effort between the 2 sampling periods. Fish were sampled in 7 points in 3 years (July 2005 to June 2007) (2 hauls per month) and 2 of these points were also sampled for another 3 years (3 hauls per month)(July 2013 to June 2015). The second period is also part of BioTIME as a separate study, and this was altogether part of study 511 in BioTIME v1.
