Metadata: 2010-2011, FERA, Skerries, Ornithological Survey
Abstract:
The original Ornithological Impact Assessment dealt specifically with data collected for the breeding season 2009, this report covers fieldwork results for the period October 2010 – March 2011 (inclusive) to allow further assessment of any impacts during the passage and winter seasons. The six month monitoring period was divided into two distinct “seasons”. For the passage season monitoring was conducted for 24 hours per month spread equally over two visits and during the winter season 12 hours of monitoring was undertaken in a single monthly visit. The surveys were scheduled to provide complete coverage of the tidal cycle for each month where daylight hours allow within the respective survey time windows.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 18409 |
| 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, FERA, Skerries, Ornithological Survey |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Ornithological Survey |
| 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. | 223919c4-1948-4bd2-b372-17eec2a253a6 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-2002 |
| 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 | 2010-10-25 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2011-03-29 |
| 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. | The six month monitoring period was divided into two distinct “seasons”. The passage season (October 2010, February and March 2011) to include autumn dispersal movements and early spring/late winter arrival of breeding seabirds and the winter season (November and December 2010, January 2011), a period when the majority of previously addressed SPA species are elsewhere on their wintering grounds. For the passage season monitoring was conducted for 24 hours per month spread equally over two visits and during the winter season 12 hours of monitoring was undertaken in a single monthly visit. The surveys were scheduled to provide complete coverage of the tidal cycle for each month where daylight hours allow within the respective survey time windows. Each survey lasted for three hours and consisted of six instantaneous scan samples of the viewshed undertaken every half hour. During scan sampling the location of every bird observed was recorded onto field maps and the time, species, number of individuals, activity and if applicable flight direction was recorded. In times of high intensity priority could be given to the species of concern and birds within the array and buffer respectively. However, during the winter and passage months intensity was low enough to enable recording of all birds observed within the viewshed. |
