Metadata: 2012-2013, National Physical Laboratory, Zone 3 Dogger Bank Creyke A and B, Underwater Noise Modelling to Support the Dogger Bank Wind Farm Environmental Impact Assessment for Creyke Beck A and Creyke Beck B
Abstract:
This project presents the underwater noise assessment undertaken by the National Physical Laboratory and Loughborough University to estimate the likely underwater noise levels generated by pile driving of wind turbine foundations for the Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A and Creyke Beck B projects, and assess the likely impact of subsea noise from construction, operation and decommissioning phases of the wind farm projects in support of the Environmental Impact Assessment. Underwater sound emissions were modelled for a number of single sound sources (piles) within Creyke Beck A and Creyke Beck B. In addition, multiple concurrent sound sources were also modelled.

Forewind Ltd

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 4661 |
| 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. | 2012-2013, National Physical Laboratory, Zone 3 Dogger Bank Creyke A and B, Underwater Noise Modelling to Support the Dogger Bank Wind Farm Environmental Impact Assessment for Creyke Beck A and Creyke Beck B |
| 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. | 47f4b7e8-af71-472a-82a1-476784481716 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | NPL 059 series |
| 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 | 2012-08-10 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2013-08-30 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 1 |
| Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/ISO_19139_Schemas/resources/uom/gmxUom.xml#m |
| 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 |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | This project presents the underwater noise assessment undertaken by the National Physical Laboratory and Loughborough University to estimate the likely underwater noise levels generated by pile driving of wind turbine foundations for the Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A and Creyke Beck B projects, and assess the likely impact of subsea noise from construction, operation and decommissioning phases of the wind farm projects in support of the Environmental Impact Assessment.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The noise propagation modelling employed for this study has been undertaken by the National Physical Laboratory, based on an energy flux solution by Weston (1976), which is capable of propagation over large distances whilst accounting for range dependent bathymetry and frequency-dependent absorption. The energy flux model has been implemented, with the frequency-dependent absorption formula of Thorpe (1967), with the effect of surface scattering included, and with averaged seabed properties over the region (Hamilton 1980), using the General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) Digital Atlas bathymetry data over an area of approximately 180km by 180km. |
