Data includes the measured environmental concentrations (MEC) of the summer copper (Cu) concentration in the German Bight from 1986 to 2021 (MUDAB database, https://geoportal.bafg.de/MUDABAnwendung/), including sampling points coordinates, year of sampling and Cu concentration. Additionally the Hazard quotient (HQ) is provided by dividing the MEC with the predicted no effect concentration (PNEC), defined as EC10 estimates from Crassostrea gigas embryos exposed for 48 h at 18°C and LC10 estimates from C. gigas larvae exposed for 24 h at 24°C, divided by an assessment factor (AF) of 5.
Data collection of concentration dependent abnormal larval development of Crassostrea gigas during 24 h at 24°C and 48 h at 18°C for the trace metals copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb). Data were collected via microscopic observation. Data collection of concentration dependent mortality within a 24 h period at 18°C and 24°C for the D- larvae stage of Ostrea edulis and C. gigas for Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb. Data were collected via microscopic observation. All data were collected from February to April 2024 at IFREMER Bouin (La plateforme mollusques marins de Bouin) in France.

The dataset comprises abundances and lengths of the Pacific oyster Magellana gigas (formerly Crassostrea gigas). The data were collected at 14 sites along the pier system around the island of Helgoland in the German Bight, North Sea (54°11' N, 7°53' E). Ten replicate quadrats (0.25 m²) were placed at the vertical pier walls at each site by SCUBA divers. In each replicate quadrat, all oysters were counted and measured in 2005, 2006 and 2012.
