Metadata: 2012, Subacoustech, Ormonde, Measurement and Assessment of Underwater Noise
Abstract:
A series of underwater acoustic measurements undertaken in and around the Ormonde Wind Farm on the 20th and 21st June 2012. The purpose of the measurement programme was to characterise any increase in the ambient subsea noise due to the presence of the operational wind farm and to assess the range over which any increase in noise occurred.Underwater noise was recorded using specialist equipment developed by Subacoustech Environmental Ltd. This measured the underwater sound to levels well below sea state zero noise, and over the frequency range that covers both the requirements to characterise anthropogenic noise in the ocean and the hearing response range of species of fish and marine mammals.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 19448 |
| 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. | 2012, Subacoustech, Ormonde, Measurement and Assessment of Underwater Noise |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Measurement and Assessment of Underwater Noise |
| 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. | e6606fec-544f-4a08-b442-061eed212c85 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-1780 |
| 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 | 2012-06-20 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2012-06-20 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 1000 |
| Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | urn:ogc:def:uom:EPSG::9001 |
| 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 |
