Metadata: 2004, CEFAS, Assessment of the re-habilitation of the seabed following marine aggregate dredging
Abstract:
This project preceded project Assessment of the Rehabilitation of the Seabed Following Marine Aggregate Dredging. The objective of this project was to provide better understanding of the processes leading to the rehabilitation of the seabed following gravel extraction in order to provide an indication of the likely timescale involved for different areas of the seabed. Also to identify dredging patterns/methods which optimise the potential to return the seabed to its pre-dredging conditions within an acceptable time scale. The key customer purpose was to assist Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (defra) and the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM) to develop management strategies for minimising the environmental impacts of ongoing dredging activity and assessing the recovery of areas of the seabed from marine aggregate extraction. Linked to Project Assessment of the Rehabilitation of the Seabed Following Marine Aggregate Dredging.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 4993 |
| 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. | 2004, CEFAS, Assessment of the re-habilitation of the seabed following marine aggregate dredging |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | ME1201 / AE0915 |
| 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. | 87abb88904d05382a8a76757274ec3b1 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 19069 |
| 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 | 2004 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2004 |
| 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 |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This research was undertaken to address this deficiency by assessing the status of seabed substrata and associated benthic fauna within and outside areas where dredging had ceased and to conduct follow up sampling to monitor progress towards full recolonization. The current report details work conducted by The Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) over the course of a four year research programme. It was funded by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM), the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and The Crown Estate as part of a joint policy initiative to address this important gap in current knowledge. The project was also overseen by a Steering Group, membership of which is given in an Annex to the main report. |
