Metadata: Ecological Consequences of Offshore Wind (ECOWind) research programme
Abstract:
The Ecological Consequences of Offshore Wind (ECOWind) research programme comprises of 4 grants: Ecological Implications of Accelerated Seabed Mobility around Windfarms (NE/X008886/1: ECOWind-ACCELERATE), Physics-to-Ecosystem Level Assessment of Impacts of Offshore Windfarms (NE/X008835/1: PELAgIO), Benthic-Offshore Wind Interactions (NE/X008991/1: BOWIE) and Ecosystem Change, Offshore Wind, Net Gain and Seabirds (NE/X009068/1: ECOWINGS). These projects are expected to run until 2027, interacting with eachother to collect multidisciplinary data that investigates the physical, biogeochemical and ecosystem impact windfarms have around the UK, using multi-scale observational data, laboratory experiments and model outputs. The data collected spans from flume data, wave model outputs and glider measurements through to the response of seabirds. The programme was funded by NERC and aims to provide new evidence in support of marine policy and the sustainable management of offshore wind development.

British Oceanographic Data Centre
| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 7429 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | Ecological Consequences of Offshore Wind (ECOWind) research programme |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | British Oceanographic Data Centre record 1048_ECOWind |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 03d046b98ee0557a980578eb38da4b35 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | EDMED7412 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2022-08-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2027-04-02 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | asNeeded |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | These datasets were created by the organisations with the "originator" role in this metadata record following their in-house data processing and quality control procedures. The high volume datasets were then provided to the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) and transferred to the BODC archive at Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) for long-term archive, followed by data publication in the BODC Published Data Library. The remaining data were provided to the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) for ingestion into one of the schemas of the National Oceanographic Database (NODB), or for long-term archive and data publication in the BODC Published Data Library. During ingestion BODC undertake quality control, documentation and metadata enhancement procedures appropriate to the type of data. For an overview please see http://www.bodc.ac.uk/about/informationtechnology/dataprocessing_steps/. BODC supply full information about data collection, data processing and data quality with all data requests to enable users to assess data suitability themselves.Instrument(s) used to collect data: fluorometers; cameras; observers; salinometers; acoustic velocity systems; Ocean models; Physical oceanographic models; water temperature sensor; dissolved gas sensors. |
