In 2006 and 2007, MABEMONO program (acronym MAcroBEnthos of the eastern English Channel and the south of the North Sea) was leaded in the Marine Station of Wimereux : sampling regular (a station each 5' in latitude and longitude) -more intense in the area of the Flanders sand banks (southern Bight of the North Sea, the sand banks in the south of the Dover Strait and the Ridens area, with a smaller spatial scale) / quantitative samples collected by a Hamon grab (or when impossible, the ¿Rallier du Baty¿ dredge) /At sampled stations, a grab (or dredge) was taken for the measure of sediments characteristics. A sub-sample of this grab (or dredge) was taken. Then, at the laboratory, the granulometric analysis consists in: (1) rinsing the samples with water in order to eliminate salt (which could form a crust during the following steps); (2) drying the sediment in an oven for at least 24 h; (3) sieving the samples through a range of 18 sieves organised in 3 sieving columns, in decreasing order of mesh size ; (4) weighing the remaining sediment in each sieve to an accuracy of 0.01 g.

Each granulometric characteristics associated with stations wete then analysed with the Folk classification and separated in seven categories : (1) pebbles which correspond to a part of the "G" category of Folk classification ; (2) gravels which contains the remaining of the "G" category plus the "sG" category of Folk classification; (3) heterogenous gravels which are a combination of the "msG" and "gmS" categories of Folk classification; (4) coarse sand which corresponds to the "gS" and "(g)S" categories of Folk classification; (5) medium sand which is the "S" category of Folk classification; (6) Muddy-fine sand which is the "mS" category of Folk classification and (7) heterogenous sand which are a combination of "(g)mS" and "(g)sM" categories of Folk classification. These seven cetagories were then mapped by binary kriging.
