Metadata: 2007-2012, ECON, Lincs, Ornithological Baseline Surveys
Abstract:
Centrica commisionned ECON/ RPS to conduct thi pre-construction monitoring at the Lincs offshore wind farm site over a study area covering the site (plus a 1 km buffer) and adjacent control area of similar size and transect length. A total of 41 boat-based surveys were carried out from December 2007 until November 2010 inclusive. The main focus of this report was to use the data collected during boat-based surveys to establish a baseline against which any future changes during construction and operation can be measured. This data was used to identify which species were most likely to be affected by any changes on site during construction and operation. In addition, the species composition of the site and control were compared and the suitability of the control was discussed. The results of the 15 aerial surveys conducted over the wider area between 2005 and 2007 outside the ‘pre-construction’ period were also summarised and briefly discussed as the full aerial survey programme in the Greater Wash has not been previously reported in relation to the Lincs/

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19504 |
| 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. | 2007-2012, ECON, Lincs, Ornithological Baseline Surveys |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Ornithological Baseline 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. | d099ff9d-fc4a-4f09-862c-2f4775a5e848 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-930 |
| 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 | 2007-04-12 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-11-24 |
| 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. | Boat-based surveyed were conducted in strip transects over an area of 69.65 km2 covering the Lincs/LID6 site and a 1 km buffer, as well as adjacent control area of 57.94 km2 (see Fig. 2). The total transect length was 28.82 km within the site and buffer and 33.42 km within the control area. Aerial surveys in the Greater Wash area were conducted between winter 2004/05 and summer 2006 by the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (WWT) using the methodology recommended by COWRIE (Camphuysen et al. 2004) (see Box 2 for the full survey protocol). In 2006, transects were extended up to shore and the boundary of the North Norfolk tern/gull colonies to more accurately record the distribution of birds and the numbers involved. |
