Metadata: 2011, Oceanflow Energy, Sanda Sound, Baseline Seabird Survey Analysis
Abstract:
The information in this document is based on baseline survey data collected in Sanda Sound, initially presented in document number ODL-P10-003-E4011, according to the methodology laid out in A-30488-S00-TECH-001. These documents stand in support of Oceanflow Development Ltd.’s application for a marine license to deploy and Evopod floating tidal turbine platform in Sanda Sound, Argyll & Bute. The following document sets out a methodology for monitoring seabirds and cetaceans using the waters in Sanda Sound, around the proposed deployment site of a ¼ scale Oceanflow Evopod device. Evopod is a semi submerged, floating, tethered tidal energy capture device. Monitoring will take place from March 2011 to July 2011; the methodology will allow the numbers and distribution of seabirds and cetaceans using the waters within a 1000m buffer surrounding the proposed deployment site to be characterised, along with their behaviour. This document contains a description of Natura sites which may have ‘connectivity’ to Sanda Sound in terms of their migratory and breeding bird populations. This document also contains further analysis of survey data that may be relevant to the process of Habitat Regulations Appraisal in relation to Oceanflow’s proposed engineering demonstration tidal turbine project in Sanda Sound. Oceanflow have followed the methodology outlined in section 3 of A-30488-S00-TECH-001 to produce maps of species distribution and tables of animal behaviour recorded during our seabird survey, conducted during the period March-July 2011. We have also included some discussion of the results with regard to the possible impacts on SPAs and SSSIs.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5566 |
| 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. | 2011, Oceanflow Energy, Sanda Sound, Baseline Seabird Survey Analysis |
| 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. | e6488ac9-6d5d-4238-a954-43c441a7f41e |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | ODL-P10-003-E4013-DOC |
| 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 | 2011-03-11 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2011-07-31 |
| 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 observer will be responsible for entering the data they record onto standardized spreadsheets, designed to be as similar as possible to the recording forms used in the field. At the end of each week the observer will email their survey results to Nigel Harding, who will perform QA checks on the data, and add them to the database. Subsequent analyses will include the following: Generation of monthly distribution maps of sightings for each species; Provision of estimates of the number of animals recorded within given distances (e.g. 100m, 500m, 1000m) of the proposed deployment site; and provision of tables summarising the proportion of time animals spend performing particular key behaviours within the study area. |
