Short summary

This article presents a 45-year data series (1978–2023) acquired in the South Bight of the North Sea. It provides an overview of the main statistical characteristics of time series (hydrological parameters and plankton species), including long-term trends and shift analysis. The aim of this paper is to make this valuable dataset available to help decipher the local and global influences of anthropogenic activities in a world increasingly affected by climate change.
