Metadata: 2016, HR Wallingford, Zone 6 - Rampion, Underwater Noise Modelling
Abstract:
In order to support E.ON's request for the modification of seasonal restrictions on piling at the Rampion Offshore windfarm, HR Wallingford was commissioned to examine underwater noise propagation arising from a reduction in the proposed hammer energy. The results of these studies are reported in DLR5374- RT001-R03-00 (underwater noise modelling), DLR5374-RT002-R02-00 (Seasonal restrictions review) and DLR5374-RT004-R01-00 (Reduced hammer energies). Following a review of that work by the Marine Management Organisation (MMO), E.ON asked HR Wallingford to re-analyse the previous model results for marine mammals and herring using different metrics to allow for comparison of the modelling with that described in the original EIA for the Rampion project (RSK Environmental Ltd, 2012). The results of these studies are reported on in DDM7600-RT007-R01-00 and DDM7600-RT004-R01-00. Further modelling was also undertaken to assess the effects of simultaneous piling events at two locations (both 2no. x 2300kJ, and 1no. x 2300kJ, 1no. x 3500kJ).

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19420 |
| 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. | 2016, HR Wallingford, Zone 6 - Rampion, Underwater Noise Modelling |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Underwater Noise Modelling |
| 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. | d7c78604-b8fc-4bd7-a00d-87d35154231c |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-2595 |
| 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 | 2016-07-12 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2016-11-28 |
| 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. | Sound maps were presented in the previous noise modelling report (DLR5374-RT001-R03-00) for pile driving with a range of hammer energies. In the study, the SEL source levels for the modelled hammer energies were derived empirically by scaling up the measured broadband sound from a pile driver with a hammer energy of 800kJ. The same source levels are used in the current study for the relevant hammer energies under investigation. Refer to "methods" within reports in the series for more information on data quality. |
