Metadata: 2003-2008, Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies, Humber Gateway, Seabird Survey Programme
Abstract:
Seabird surveys conducted by the Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies (IECS) on behalf of Humber Wind Ltd (HWL) in the vicinity of a proposed offshore windfarm site off the Yorkshire coast. The proposed windfarm site lies in inshore waters c. 8km off the Holderness coast and covers an area of 35.5km2. In addition to a desk study collating published and unpublished ornithological data for this section of the Holderness coast, two survey techniques were employed in and around the proposed windfarm site in order to collect and collate information on seabird usage.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 39772 |
| 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. | 2003-2008, Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies, Humber Gateway, Seabird Survey Programme |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Seabird Survey Programme |
| 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. | 428e64ac-04b8-475c-917e-711f6f0c928d |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-680 |
| 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 | 2003-09-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2008-11-01 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The monitoring programme included a total of 29 ship-based seabird surveys conducted between September 2003 and December 2005, and a further 16 aeroplane surveys during the October 2003 to September 2005 period; both monitoring techniques were conducted using the standard seabird methodology recording techniques using a transect based approach. Subsequent to the survey programme, the data have been analysed for abundance, seasonality and density and the data input to a series of maps, in order to graphically demonstrate the distribution of key species on a seasonal basis. Additional surveys were undertaken between July and October 2008, to update the information described in the Environmental Statement. The survey report and data is provided within this series. |
