Summary: ALPE ADRIA, monitoring of hydrographic and biological features related with the impact of mucilaginous aggregates of the Northern Adriatic ecosystem - The different particulate features were analyzed in relation to the impact of mucilaginous aggregates on the Northern Adriatic Ecosystem. The particulate data were collected during 9 cruises from March to October 1990 (35 stations - TSM and ISM in all stations; POC and PON in 11 stations; C/N in 8 stations), 6 cruises from June to November 1991 (41 stations - TSM and ISM in all stations; POC and PON in 13 stations; C/N in 10 stations) and 9 cruises from March to November 1992 (7 stations - TSM, ISM, POC, PON, C/N in all stations).
