Metadata: 2010-2019 Natural Resources Wales Skomer MCZ Zooplankton Time Series
Abstract:
Time series of consistent plankton samples taken using a Zooplankton net (200um mesh) from a single point on the North side of Skomer Marine Conservation Zone. The net is hauled vertically from 40m and the methods used are designed to replicate the methods used by PML at the L4 plankton sampling station.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 11349 |
| 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. | 2010-2019 Natural Resources Wales Skomer MCZ Zooplankton Time Series |
| 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. | 4972dd7d727f70ef96240ca0106642de |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | SMCZ_Zoo |
| 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 | 2010-03-10 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2019-11-08 |
| 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'. | notPlanned |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | Time series of consistent plankton samples taken using a Zooplankton net (200um mesh) from a single point on the North side of Skomer Marine Conservation Zone.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Data collected by NRW staff at Skomer Marine Conservation Zone using methodology also employed by Plymouth Marine Laboratory at the L4 sampling station. Samples analysed by staff from Plymouth Marine Laboratory and the Sir Alister Hardy Foundation for Ocean Science. MEDIN form quality assured by DASSH staff. This data has been reviewed against the DASSH Quality Assessment Criteria (http://doi.org/10.17031/64ccec5c7ba72) and been categorised as "High-Medium" quality |
