Metadata: Natural England (NE) 2003-2004 South Wight Maritime European Marine Site Sublittoral Monitoring
Abstract:
Survey conducted by Aquatic Survey and Monitoring Ltd. on behalf of English Nature (EN). This subtidal fieldwork programme aimed to establish a methodology for sampling the sites subtidal features in a way that could be repeated. The project was designed to enable the assessment of the South Wight Maritime cSAC and to compare it's condition with the targets. The results includes an assessment of the range of biotopes and their distribution, community types and species present.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 3529 |
| 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. | Natural England (NE) 2003-2004 South Wight Maritime European Marine Site Sublittoral Monitoring |
| 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. | eddaa7f62b643e99d959ad9f9af8bf81 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | NATENG000132 |
| 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 | 2003-07-07 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2004-11-03 |
| 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 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This report details a sublittoral survey conducted on behalf of English Nature (EN) based within the South Wight Maritime cSAC. The programme established a methodology for sampling the sites so that this could be repeated in the future. The project aimed to enable comparisons between the conditions observed (in the survey) with the target conditions for the site. A range of methods were established and used. Biotopes and their distribution were assessed using remote video. Each biotope is briefly described and maps with their distributions provided. The species composition of selected biotopes (i.e. kelp forest) were assessed using divers. This involved quantitative sampling using randomly placed quadrats. Semi-quantitative survey methods were also used to provide a broader contextual description. In addition, the species composition data was compared with that from earlier surveys. |
