Metadata: 2002-2004, Ecology Consulting Ltd, Robin Rigg Offshore Wind Farm, Aerial Bird Survey Data
Abstract:
Baseline bird observation survey transects (2002-2004) by Ecology Consulting of the baseline bird survey data collected since the submission of the Environmental Statement for the Robin Rigg wind farm, covering May 2002 - September 2004. The main aim of both this work and that presented in the ES was to determine the distribution and abundance of seabirds using the Solway offshore wind farm site and its surrounds. The survey methods were designed to suit as best possible all of the main bird groups that were being surveyed.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The main aim of both this work and that presented in the ES was to determine the distribution and abundance of seabirds using the Solway offshore wind farm site and its surrounds. The survey methods were designed to suit as best possible all of the main bird groups that were being surveyed. Standard methodologies were used, following Komdeur et al. (1992), though these were tailored to suit the local surveying conditions, and recent methodological improvements that have been developed were also be incorporated. In particular the spatial resolution of the data collection was more precise than these standard survey techniques. |
