Metadata: 2006, CMACS, Burbo Bank, Commercial Fish Survey
Abstract:
This project relates to the specific FEPA requirements for surveys of subtidal benthic (seabed) invertebrate ecology and fish. These are in part addressed by an annual 2m scientific beam trawl survey which complements other work, notably grab sampling and 4m (commercial) beam trawl surveys. The 2m beam trawl survey is undertaken by Centre for Marine and Coastal Studies Ltd (CMACS) on behalf of SeaScape Ltd. The programme commenced with baseline (pre-construction) surveys in autumn 2005 which built upon surveys undertaken in 2002 in support of the project environmental impact assessment. This project relates to the results of monitoring carried out in autumn 2006, during construction of the wind farm, and compares the results with baseline data. The survey outcomes showed some clear differences in benthic fauna sampled by beam trawls that were apparent between baseline survey in 2005 and the during construction survey in 2006. The most notable trend was a marked decrease in abundance of epibenthic invertebrates and infauna sampled by trawls across many sites.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19240 |
| 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, CMACS, Burbo Bank, Commercial Fish Survey |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Commercial Fish Survey |
| 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. | 9f85e9b9-363b-483c-bae6-49c65e7b15f3 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-174 |
| 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 | 2006-09-16 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2006-09-17 |
| 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 survey was conducted over two days on the 7th and 11th of October using the survey vessel Aquadynamicâ operating out of Liverpool Marina returning to berth on a daily basis. A standard CEFAS 2m beam trawl with a 4mm square mesh cod end equipped with a chain matrix was used, being towed at each site for a distance of 300m at a speed of 2 knots to allow sufficient warp for the trawl to "fish" the bottom properly. All tows were undertaken into the prevailing current and 12 sites were surveyed in total (see Figure 1 and Appendix 6.1 for site locations). |
