Metadata: Pickleridge Lagoon Soft Sediment Infauna Survey (2006 - 2013)
Abstract:
This dataset is a collation of data from subtidal benthic soft sediment sampling carried out within Pickleridge lagoon, which is a feature of the Pembrokeshire Marine Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The purpose of this data capture was to aid in the monitoring and condition assessment of this Annex I feature.

| 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. | NRW_DS110466 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 4f4c4942-4343-5764-6473-313130343636 |
| 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 | 2006-12-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-12-31 |
| 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'. | annually |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | This dataset is a collation of data from subtidal benthic soft sediment sampling carried out within Pickleridge lagoon, which is a feature of the Pembrokeshire Marine Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The purpose of this data capture was to aid in the monitoring and condition assessment of this Annex I feature. |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Monitoring work is carried out at 3 fixed sample stations on each sampling visit. Infaunal sampling is carried out annually in Winter. Salinity and temperature are recorded continuously. Benthic invertebrate samples are processed by laboratories that are members of the National Marine Biological Analytical Quality Control (NMBAQC) scheme and random samples from each survey are also selected for audit by Unicomarine. Data captured methods. Abundance of benthic invertebrates (per 0.0044m2) and granulometry. Supporting determinants are: National Grid References recorded using hand held GPS and salinity and temperature which are continuously recorded at middle site using a data logger. Three repeatable stations are sampled (North, middle and South). All samples are collected using a corer (0.0044m2). Benthic invertebrate samples are sieved over a 0.5mm mesh. |
