Metadata: Severn Estuary: Assessment of sources for appraisal of the impact of maritime aggregate extraction
Abstract:
The Severn Estuary: Assessment of sources for appraisal of impact of maritime aggregate extraction project was undertaken by the Museum of London Archaeology Servcice (MoLAS) and was funded by the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund as distributed by English Heritage. The project involved the identification, collection and appraisal of data sets for the marine archaeological resources within the Severn Estuary and Inner Bristol Channel, assessment of the marine archaeological resource and assessment of the potential impact upon the resource by current and future marine aggregate extraction. The study encompasses the Severn Estuaries landward limit stated as Chart Datum (LAT) from Gore point in the south west on west side of Porlock Bay to Gloucester in the north east. The landward limit upon the welsh side is defined as mean low Water (MLW) to Nash Point near Llantwit Major in the north west, an area roughly analogous to the Bristol Channel Marine Aggregates and Constraints Project (BCMACP), Severn Estuary and Inner Bristol Channel zones. The study area is set within a highly dynamic estuarine environment, with its current form being largely influenced by Holocene sea level change, erosion and sediments deposition.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 1952 |
| 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. | Severn Estuary: Assessment of sources for appraisal of the impact of maritime aggregate extraction |
| 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. | 8594936bb04b2d505267069f5cb4b471 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | COLL_ID_1000713 |
| 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 | 2007-08-08 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2007-08-14 |
| 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 |
