Metadata: 2004-2005, Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies, Humber Gateway, Baseline Study of the Marine Ecology
Abstract:
The Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies was commissioned by Environmental Resources Management (ERM), on behalf of the developer (E.ON UK Renewables), to carry out an evaluation of the marine ecology present, both within the immediate development site, and in adjacent waters. The assessment aimed to investigate the subtidal invertebrate assemblage, both infaunal and epifaunal, the intertidal infaunal assemblages (at the cable landfall), the composition of the fish communities, their spawning potential and the juvenile component. The following surveys were carried out: Subtidal macrofaunal sampling, including sediment analysis (December 2004); Intertidal macrofaunal sampling and sediment analysis (April 2005); Epifaunal trawling (October 2004); Fish surveys carried out in November 2004 and March 2005 to account for seasonal variation (due to migration, spawning and recruitment) in the structure and species composition of the fish communities. Characterisation of Sabellaria species at specific sites where presence was highlighted by the macrofaunal and epifaunal surveys.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 4309 |
| 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. | 2004-2005, Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies, Humber Gateway, Baseline Study of the Marine Ecology |
| 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. | 09752210150f586f8d5b806ec55016c6 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 3617 |
| 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 | 2026-04-19 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2026-04-19 |
| 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 |
