Metadata: 2005-2006, ESS, Rhyl Flats, Ornithology Monitoring
Abstract:
This project was conducted by Environmentally Sustainable Systems Ltd. (ESS) and concerns the statistical findings of the ornithological survey data collected between August 2005 and November 2006, including maps of data collected from August 2005 to March 2006. There are species of highest conservation concern around the Rhyl Flats wind farm for which an ecologically significant reduction would be of concern. The list contained eleven species (red-throated diver, fulmar, cormorant, shag, common scoter, kittiwake, common tern, sandwich tern, little tern, guillemot and razorbill), which are the qualifying interest for the nearby SSSIs and SPAs. Both aerial and boat based surveys were undertaken.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 31437 |
| 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. | 2005-2006, ESS, Rhyl Flats, Ornithology Monitoring |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Ornithology Monitoring |
| 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. | e8be4a54-83ed-47f6-9b3c-2ffc32b67df8 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | TCE-1844 |
| 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 | 2005-08-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2006-11-30 |
| 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 surveys up to February 2006 were undertaken by a team comprising two bird surveyors with only one surveyor observing (from one side of the boat) at any one time, and another working as a designated scribe. Observations were made using the naked eye, with binoculars used where necessary to facilitate identification. In addition to the bird species, surveyors recorded relevant details on age, sex, plumage, number of birds, direction if in flight, flight height band and any specific behavioural characteristics including feeding, scavenging, and escape flight/dive. |
| Additional information | This describes relevant references to the data e.g. reports, articles, websites plus other useful information not captured elsewhere. | Supply media: 001 Origin: Environmentally Sustainable Systems Ltd. |
