Metadata: 2007-2012, ECON and RPS, Lynn and Inner Dowsing, Boat-based Ornithological Survey
Abstract:
The Lynn and Inner Dowsing wind farms are each comprised of 27 wind turbines (54 in total) that were installed between April 2007 and the end of July 2008. All turbines were fully operational by March 2009. The Food and Environmental Protection Act (FEPA) 1985 Licences for the LID projects specified three main objectives in relation to ornithological monitoring: 1. Assess changes in usage of area by feeding birds and birds on passage; 2. Assess collision risk prior to construction of the wind farms and investigate techniques/methodologies for collecting data on actual collisions during and post construction; and 3. Survey benthos to inform reasons for possible changes in bird distribution and density on site. Boat-based bird surveys were undertaken between 2007 and 2012 to fulfil the objective 1 monitoring requirements during the construction and post-construction periods. The reports and datasets provided within this series cover these surveys.

| 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. | 4f777048-aca7-48f6-9db0-454c78971577 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-1096 |
| 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 | 2007-07-26 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-02-17 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Between 2007 and 2010 surveys were mainly conducted using the vessel Jubilee Intrepid (21.6 m) with an eye-height of 6.7 m and the Fruitful Harvest (19.89 m) with eye heights of 5 m and 5.7 m depending on the position of the surveyors. One survey was also conducted using the smaller Sirocco (14.5 m). The survey schedule is provided in Appendix 1 with the survey summary sheets for 2010 provided in Appendix 2. As specified in license conditions, one survey was generally conducted per month except in January/February and November/December when one survey was required over each of these two-month periods, and during both September and October over the main autumn migration period when the target was three surveys per month. |
