Abstract Data snapshot supporting IA2017 Indicator Assessment Change in Mean Trophic Level of Marine Predators in the Bay of Biscay. The Mean Trophic Level indicator assesses the state of the food web taking into account its structure (via biomasses) and the Trophic Level metric, which reflects the energy transfer between preys and predators. This indicator is mainly sensitive to the fishing pressure. This common indicator, applicable to OSPAR Region IV, was calculated for the northern and southern part of the Bay of Biscay. [Version 001]
