Metadata: 2010 - 2011, AMEC, Blyth Demonstration Site, Pre-consent Fish and Fisheries Reports
Abstract:
AMEC was commissioned by NaREC to conduct series of surveys to determine the type and distribution of fish and commercial shellfish species in and around the site of the proposed offshore wind farm for the preconstruction baseline monitoring requirements of the EIA. Entec was subcontracted to undertake each survey. Between October 2010 and September 2011 a series of surveys were undertaken to determine the type and distribution of fish and commercial shellfish species in and around the site of the proposed offshore wind farm. Three types of survey were performed; trawl surveys using an otter trawl, set net surveys using gill nets, and potting surveys using parlour pots. DSML was also commissioned to report on the commercial fisheries within the vicinity of the proposed site.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 18363 |
| 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. | 2010 - 2011, AMEC, Blyth Demonstration Site, Pre-consent Fish and Fisheries Reports |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Pre-consent Fish and Fisheries Reports |
| 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. | 19299cda-3d5b-4f1c-9414-5eb0dd0a8901 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-90 |
| 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 | 2010-09-30 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2011-08-31 |
| 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. | In general, the fishing vessels which regularly work the area of the proposed Blyth Offshore Demonstration site are small trawlers and potting vessels which operate from various ports on the Northumberland coast as well as further south. The majority of fishing effort in the inshore and southern area of the proposed demonstration site is directed towards potting for edible crabs (Cancer pagurus) and common lobsters (Homarus gammarus), as well as static netting for cod (Gadus morhua) and other whitefish in winter, and drift nets for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and sea trout (Salmo trutta var trutta) in the summer months. Further offshore in the northern half of the demonstration site, otter trawling for Norway lobster (Nephrops norvegicus - known locally as prawns, and from hereon referred to as Nephrops) and whitefish is the main fishery. Information Gaps 7.3.7 No significant information gaps were identified. |
