Metadata: 2014-2015, Brown and May Marine, Zone 6 - Rampion, Herring Larval Survey
Abstract:
The Herring Larval survey conducted by E.ON was undertaken to characterise herring spawning in the vicinity of the proposed Rampion development area. The survey methodology replicates that of the ICES International Herring Larval Survey. 23 stations were sampled in November 2014, December 2014 and January 2015 using a Gull VII high speed plankton sampler.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19440 |
| 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. | 2014-2015, Brown and May Marine, Zone 6 - Rampion, Herring Larval Survey |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Herring Larval 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. | e11f4e98-f987-408b-8a19-783a8d635393 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-2582 |
| 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 | 2014-11-20 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2015-01-20 |
| 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 |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | The Herring Larval survey conducted by E.ON was undertaken to characterise herring spawning in the vicinity of the proposed Rampion development area. The survey methodology replicates that of the ICES International Herring Larval Survey. 23 stations were sampled in November 2014, December 2014 and January 2015 using a Gull VII high speed plankton sampler. |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | The survey methodology was designed using the IHLS standard methodology, to ensure adequate coverage of known spawning areas. All surveys were conducted within Brown and May Ltd. Standard operating procedures, in line with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 accreditation. A Gulf VII high speed plankton sampler was used for sampling herring larvae with a plankton net with a mesh size of 270�µm. The amount of water filtered during each haul was measured using a General Oceanics flowmeter mounted inside the nosecone. A second flowmeter was externally mounted on the frame of the sampler. The sampler was fitted with a SAIV A/S SD204 probe to record conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) measurements. An Applied Acoustics transponder was also fitted to give a real time feed of the sampler depth using an Applied Acoustics Portable Acoustics Modem (PAM 35 10). The transducer was deployed below the water surface using an aluminium pole attached to the side of the vessel to allow a clear â??line of sightâ?? between the transducer and transponder. 5.5.1 The position of the vessel was tracked at all times using a Garmin GPSMap 278 with an EGNOS differential connected to an external Garmin GA30 antenna. Tow start times and positions were taken when the sampler makes contact with the sea surface and tow end times and positions were taken when the sampler returned to the surface. Sample analysis was undertaken by Cefas specialist laboratory staff in Lowestoft. For each station, information was logged on the station number, position, date and time, haul duration, internal and external flowmeter revolutions, bottom and sampler depth, water bottom temperature and vessel direction of tow. The sampler depth was monitored continuously throughout the tow.The dataset contains abundance estimates of larvae less than 10mm, larvae greater than or equal to 10mm and total larvae abundance (number per m2) of Herring and Clupeidae species. |
