Metadata: 2010 -2011, SMRU Ltd., European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre, Bird and Marine Mammal Surveys
Abstract:
Aberdeen Offshore Wind Farm Limited (AOWFL) has applied for consent to Marine Scotland for the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre (EOWDC) and as part of that process have been collecting and processing the required ecological data. Previously 15 months of boat-based surveys for marine mammals and seabirds had been carried out by Hull University and RPS during 2007-2008. SMRU Ltd were contracted to conduct a further 12 months of surveys which started in August 2010. This report presents data on the distribution of sightings and acoustic detections of marine mammals and sightings of seabirds from the 12 surveys which took place between August 2010 and August 2011.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5053 |
| 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 -2011, SMRU Ltd., European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre, Bird and Marine Mammal 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. | 91bb98662921423f936d0eb9f38e8da4 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 001 |
| 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 | 2010-08-03 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2011-08-23 |
| 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'. | asNeeded |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The aim of the Year 2 project was to conduct monthly boat surveys of three strata (north, south and offshore, Figure 1) to record marine mammal and seabird sightings data as well as simultaneously collecting cetacean acoustic data. The north survey area overlapped with the areas surveyed previously during Year 1 data collection (Figure 2). Surveys commenced in August 2010, but due to adverse weather conditions and timing of other activity within the site (e.g. a geophysical survey), a survey in every month was not possible. |
