Metadata: 2007, CMACS, Burbo Bank, Year 1 Benthic Grab Survey
Abstract:
Burbo Offshore Wind Farm is a twenty-five turbine, 90MW development located in Liverpool Bay approximately 6km from the coastlines of Wirral, Crosby and Liverpool. A licence was issued to the wind farm developer, SeaScape Energy Ltd, which allows them to construct and operate the wind farm. The benthic (seabed) monitoring programme consists of annual surveys by grab sampling and beam trawling. It is being undertaken by Centre for Marine and Coastal Studies Ltd (CMACS) on behalf of SeaScape. The programme commenced with baseline (pre-construction) surveys in autumn 2005. This report presents the results of benthic grab surveys carried out in autumn 2007, after completion of installation of all major components of the wind farm, and compares the results with baseline and during construction survey data.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Grab sampling was carried out from the survey vessel ‘Aquadynamic’ on the 11th and 12th September 2007 and all samples were obtained using a 0.1 m2 Day Grab. At each station the survey vessel was positioned to within 10 m of the target point using DGPS and actual sample position recorded to ± 2 m (including allowance for grab drift). |
