Metadata: 2012 Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) and Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) Barmade Bank CEND0412 Marine Conservation Zone Verification Survey RV CEFAS Endeavour
Abstract:
The Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) and Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) undertook an offshore seabed Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ) verification survey of Barmade Bank on the Research Vessel (RV) CEFAS Endeavour in 7th March 2012 (Cruise Code: CEND0412). Compass Rose and Farnes East were also surveyed as part of the MB120 project. The aim of the survey was to collect additional data at a number of recommended Marine Conservation Zones (rMCZ) within the Net Gain regional project to increase confidence in the evidence for the presence and extent of the Broadscale Habitats (BSH) and Habitat Features of Conservation Importance (FOCI) included in the proposals for designation. Survey data collected at Barmade Bank were videos and stills.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 11584 |
| 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. | 2012 Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) and Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) Barmade Bank CEND0412 Marine Conservation Zone Verification Survey RV CEFAS Endeavour |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | CEND0412 Barmade Bank |
| 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. | d5f77cfb7813a0d14409c4a5861ff810 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CEND0412 |
| 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 | 2012-03-07 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-03-07 |
| 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'. | asNeeded |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | The Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) and Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) undertook an offshore seabed Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ) verification survey of Barmade Bank on the Research Vessel (RV) CEFAS Endeavour in 7th March 2012 (Cruise Code: CEND0412).

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | All methodologies followed the Video and Stills (using a drop camera) Protocol provided by CEFAS. Determination of sediment type, such as coarse, mixed, sand etc. was facilitated using the adapted Folk sediment trigon incorporated into a sediment category correlation table. Percentage gravel (boulders, cobbles, shells, granules, dead/live maerl), sand and mud were used to determine and assign EUNIS broad scale habitats. Where required, modelled EUNIS categories for each of the video and still locations were considered from the UKSeaMap 2010 predictive model. Therefore, for each still / video, it was possible to determine the possible BS modelled substrate and biological zone, i.e. whether the station received enough light for algal growth (infralittoral / circalittoral) or whether the station was likely to be 'wave disturbed' (circalittoral / deep circalittoral) (McBreen et al., 2011). Sediments were noted as cobble / stony reef when 10 % or more of the seabed substratum was composed of particles greater than 64 mm across whilst the extent was identified to be >25 m2 from the video footage (Irving, 2009). |
