Metadata: Balearic Shearwater Monitoring Survey Data
Abstract:
This project delivers data on the UK’s at-sea non-breeding Balearic shearwater population. Funding from the Marine Natural Capital and Ecosystems Assessment (mNCEA) programme allowed a combination of ESAS-trained JNCC surveyors and volunteer surveyors to be deployed on Cefas annual PELTIC survey (PELagic ecosystem in the western English Channel and eastern CelTIC Sea) to collect Balearic shearwater data. These data will increase the evidence base and data time series for this species.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 11528 |
| 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. | Balearic Shearwater Monitoring Survey Data |
| 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. | bba5834e-db45-446d-a4a9-18f445da9c94 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | JNCCBalearicShearwaterMonitoring |
| 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. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2023-09-25 |
| 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'. | unknown |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | This project delivers data on the UK’s at-sea non-breeding Balearic shearwater population. Funding from the Marine Natural Capital and Ecosystems Assessment (mNCEA) programme allowed a combination of ESAS-trained JNCC surveyors and volunteer surveyors to be deployed on Cefas annual PELTIC survey (PELagic ecosystem in the western English Channel and eastern CelTIC Sea) to collect Balearic shearwater data. These data will increase the evidence base and data time series for this species. |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This dataset was collected by JNCC staff and volunteers trained and managed by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) and stored on the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) European Seabirds at Sea (ESAS) data portal for long-term archive and management. Data was collected using the standardised ESAS survey methodology. These data were collected during ship-based surveys at sea and according to a methodology that allows to calculate georeferenced seabird densities. Standard practice further implies collecting as much information as possible on animal age, plumage and behaviour as well as observation conditions and distance to the observed individuals. |
