Metadata: 2006, Ocean Marine Research Ltd., Barrow Offshore Wind Farm, Epifaunal Video Survey of Sub-Sea Turbine Piles
Abstract:
This series examines the epifaunal survey of the sub-sea turbine monopiles carried out at Barrow offshore wind farm by Ocean Marine Research Ltd. The objective of this survey was to fulfil certain licensing conditions required by DEFRA. A series of six of the wind turbines were surveyed. In each case, the surveying diver descended from the surface through the inter-tidal zone and progressed in a downward spiral motion to the rock armour at the seabed. The conclusions from the survey show that the species at the six turbines are the dominant species and typical of failing communities, which establish themselves on man-made structures. These species include: mussels, starfish, barnacles, green sea urchin, plumose anemone, marine algae and common shrimp.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19056 |
| 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. | 2006, Ocean Marine Research Ltd., Barrow Offshore Wind Farm, Epifaunal Video Survey of Sub-Sea Turbine Piles |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Epifaunal Video Survey of Sub-Sea Turbine Piles |
| 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. | 88cad82f-6c90-4b92-b6ae-4ec30216b0e5 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-37 |
| 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 | 2006-04-30 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2006-05-30 |
| 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. | The species at the six turbines are the dominate species and typical of fouling communities which establish themselves on man-made strucutures. Ocean Marine's dedicated survey/dive vessel, MV "Barinthus" was utilised througout this survey. On arrival at Barrow-in-Furness , all vessle and crew certification were supplied to the Barrow offshore wind farm developers. |
