Metadata: Collated new Non-native species records for UK from 2003-2014
Abstract:
Data are new records of non-indigenous species made between 1st January 2003 and 31st December 2014 for Celtic Seas and Greater North Sea region. Data include the date that a new records of non-indigenous species was first made and the location of the observation.
Data holder:
Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science, Lowestoft Laboratory (CEFAS)
| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 10767 |
| 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. | Collated new Non-native species records for UK from 2003-2014 |
| 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. | CEFAScd5ee35e-c727-4888-9b37-f2d0ad522751 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CEFAS19992 |
| 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 | 2003-01-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2014-12-31 |
| 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'. | notPlanned |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | Data are new records of non-indigenous species made between 1st January 2003 and 31st December 2014 for Celtic Seas and Greater North Sea region. Data include the date that a new records of non-indigenous species was first made and the location of the observation. |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Separate data were received from Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Data were checked in Microsoft Excel 2016 for taxonomic discrepancies and formatting issues which were then addressed. Species names were cross checked with taxonomic information available in the World Register of Marine Species. Duplicated records for a species within each UK sub-region were removed so that numbers recorded for each UK sub-region were not overestimated. Crucially, it was ensured that the first record (earliest) for a species was used. The time period used was selected as it represents two six year periods (2003 to 2008 and 2009 to 2014), from which data was complete and available. The data enables comparison of new records of non-indigenous species between two 6 year reporting periods to be demonstrated. |
