Methods
The main aim of the dataset is preparing the available data by diversity of the Black Sea macroalgae. which were collected the scientists from IBSS around Crimean coast of the Ukrainian shelf during last 40 years. The species diversity is described from 43 transects. 180 stations at 0.1 - 25 m depth. Unit of abundance = AggregatedPresence, Unit of biomass = NA
