Metadata: 2010, Ichthys Marine Ecological Consulting Ltd, COWRIE Research, Options and opportunities for marine fisheries mitigation associated with windfarms
Abstract:
The establishment of windfarms at sea has the potential to cause disruption to commercial fishing activities, including through the loss of access to some fishing grounds for the operational life of the windfarm. In light of the potential for fishermen to lose access to significant sea areas within offshore windfarms, this project was focused on supporting commercial fishermen and dependent fishing communities ashore over the long term by investigating options and opportunities for marine fisheries mitigation associated with windfarms. The overall aim of the project was to develop a menu of possible mitigation options which would be of use to fishermen, developers, regulatory and statutory bodies and marine resource managers in discussions related to current and future windfarm developments, as well as in other offshore industry developments and in any future consideration of marine spatial planning issues.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19116 |
| 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, Ichthys Marine Ecological Consulting Ltd, COWRIE Research, Options and opportunities for marine fisheries mitigation associated with windfarms |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Options and opportunities for marine fisheries mitigation associated with windfarms |
| 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. | 868213f7-cc05-46bb-af19-6d318c2987f1 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-269 |
| 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 | 2010-07-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2010-07-01 |
| 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. | This project was focused on supporting commercial fishermen and fishing communities over the long term by investigating options and opportunities for marine fisheries mitigation associated with windfarms. In brief, the aim of this project can be summarised as "Identifying ways to keep fishermen fishing". The project had national scope, although the diversity of environmental conditions and fishing techniques that are found around the UK mean that not all mitigation options will be relevant to all situations where windfarms and commercial fisheries interact. It is important to note that the results of the project are in no way intended to eliminate or constrain discussions between windfarm developers and the fishing industry, or amongst other stakeholders including fisheries management, science and statutory bodies. Instead, it is intended that the work is used to support and enhance discussions between the parties associated with any UK offshore windfarm development. |
