Metadata: Southern IFCA Solent Scallop Survey 2021 - Present
Abstract:
As part of Southern IFCA's management of Bivalve species in the Solent, a baseline survey, repeated annually, has been carried out in order to better understand the extent and nature of the Solent scallop fishery. This survey aims to provide an initial understanding on the distribution of the king scallop (Pecten maximus) and collect information on the population structure of the scallops found within the Solent. The intention is to use the findings of this survey to not only provide an initial baseline but also be used to develop an annual monitoring programme which will enable Southern IFCA to track population trends and feed this into its management of the Solent bivalve fisheries through the newly confirmed Solent Dredge Permit Byelaw. Survey includes Catch Per Unit Effort (kg/m of dredge/hr) and height and width measurements of all scallops sampled.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 2350 |
| 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. | Southern IFCA Solent Scallop Survey 2021 - Present |
| 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. | 9d2f4d12f33278ccb6875eb009c9c90f |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | SIFCA0721 |
| 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 | 2021-07-30 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2022-04-21 |
| 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'. | continual |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This data was collected by Research officers at Southern IFCA. Data is collected using set tows on a dredge for 4 minutes. All catch is measured, weighed and returned to produce catch per unit effort data and measurement data for the scallops. |
