- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "This establishes the ecological and regulatory significance of macrobenthos as bioindicators for environmental monitoring. Their sensitivity to disturbance makes them essential for assessing ecosystem health under EU directives." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Key environmental characterization of the study area. The oligotrophic conditions and physical environment influence macrobenthic community composition and should be considered when interpreting temporal changes." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Identifies the main anthropogenic and environmental pressures affecting Heraklion Bay. These stressors may explain observed temporal changes in macrobenthic community composition between sampling periods." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Contextualizes the study within broader Mediterranean marine conservation concerns. The dual hotspot status makes long-term monitoring data particularly valuable for understanding climate-biodiversity interactions." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Describes the data management approach ensuring long-term usability and interoperability. The use of Darwin Core standards and WoRMS taxonomic validation enables integration with global biodiversity databases like OBIS." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Documents the standardized sampling methodology, enabling comparability with other macrobenthic studies using the same equipment. The consistent 0.1 m² sampling surface allows density calculations." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Study area for macrobenthic community research, located on the northern coast of Crete, Greece. An oligotrophic area exposed to wave action with muddy sediments." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Main sampling transect with 7 stations from 10m to 200m depth, adjacent to the Heraklion wastewater treatment plant." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Shallowest sampling station on H2 transect, near the wastewater treatment plant outfall area." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Deepest sampling station on H2 transect at the outer continental shelf." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 comment "Largest Greek island, located in the eastern Mediterranean. The study area is on its northern coast." assertion.

- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "Macrobenthic communities are amongst the most sensitive indicators of environmental changes and human impacts on marine habitats and are also key biological quality elements (BQEs) under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and the Water Framework Directive (WFD)." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "It is described as oligotrophic with primary productivity of 80 gC/m²/year, characterised by intense wave action and muddy sediments." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "However, it faces pressures deriving from urbanisation, tourism, small-scale fisheries and climate change." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "This is of particular importance for the Mediterranean Sea which is characterised as a hot spot of biodiversity and climate change impacts on its biota." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "All data were standardised following the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable), ensuring that both metadata and data are machine-actionable and properly linked via persistent identifiers and community standards." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "A Smith McIntyre grab (SMI, sampling surface: 0.1 m²) has been used, operated by the research vessel 'PHILIA' of the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "The Gulf of Heraklion is one of the most well-studied coastal marine ecosystems in the eastern Mediterranean." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "Samples were collected from a specific transect of stations, named H2 (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100 and 200 m depth), located in the wider marine area of the wastewater treatment plant of Heraklion City." assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "H2-10: 35.346472° N 25.114750° E at 10m depth" assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "H2-200: 35.418194° N 25.113139° E at 200m depth" assertion.
- BDJ.13.e174931 hasQuotedText "Heraklion Bay (Crete, Greece) has been the focus of research for several decades." assertion.
