Metadata: 2002, Hydrosearch Associates Ltd, Gunfleet Sands Offshore Wind Farm, Contaminants in Marine Sediments
Abstract:
This project forms part of the Environmental Impact Assessment for the Gunfleet Sands Offshore Wind Farm. It examines the concentrations of selected contaminants in estuarine and marine sediments in the vicinity of the wind farm. These data are important as they give a good indication whether there are likely to be any issues relating to the dispersion of contaminants from sediments during activities such as piling for the monopile structures and trenching for the cables. This data set forms a useful baseline against which to monitor any changes during construction and operation of the wind farm. It is recommended that future data should also include aluminium and LOI analyses, and that new data are plotted with this existing data to show if there are trends towards elevated (or reduced) concentrations of contaminants. Figure 1 (which is missing from this report) can be found as a separate report within this 'Contaminants in marine sediments at the site of Gunfleet Sands Offshore Wind Farm' project. Any missing data from this report is held within the Titan Environmental Surveys Ltd benthis report of the Gunfleet Sands site (2002) which can be found at http://data.offshorewind.co.uk/catalogue/result.php?id=1535

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 4448 |
| 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. | 2002, Hydrosearch Associates Ltd, Gunfleet Sands Offshore Wind Farm, Contaminants in Marine Sediments |
| 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. | 22df7d761ac75e998968dd27d3170879 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 1682 |
| 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 |
