Metadata: 1992 Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) Littoral survey of Solway Firth, Dumfries and Galloway
Abstract:
As part of a contract for the Marine Nature Conservation Review, this report describes the shores between Luce Sands, Dumfries and Galloway and Maryport, Cumbria. Forty-five sites were analysed and 174 habitat records completed. The report contains detailed habitat descriptions of all the sites visited as well as high resolution colour photographs to accompany some of the more diverse areas. All of the sites are located with Long/Lat coordinates as well as a grid reference and site name. Detailed species lists and abundance found at each site can be found in the appendix.
