Metadata: 2005, ABP Mer, Gunfleet Sands Offshore Wind Farm, Further Sediment Sampling and Analysis
Abstract:
This project addresses part of the FEPA consent conditions at Gunfleet Sands. It includes two main elements of work: an improved assessment of sediment grain size and an improved assessment and quantification of sediment transport. A refined description of sediment gradings data has been established at strategically selected site across the proposed wind farm site, at adjacent sites across Gunfleet Sands and at sites along the Clacton Frontage. The analysis of sediment gradings now includes a more rigours description of grain size variation, with consideration of modal classes. Potential changes in sediment mobility at these sites have been assessed for both tidal and wave regimes. For the tidal regime, small effects are determined locally on Gunfleet Sands, but not along the foreshore. Based on this assessment, there is unlikely to be any long-term changes in the sediment transport regime either at any of the sites considered. There will however be significant short-term changes resulting from local scour around each of the turbine support structures which has not been addressed by this study.

| Other details | ||
| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5619 |
| 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, ABP Mer, Gunfleet Sands Offshore Wind Farm, Further Sediment Sampling and 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. | ee3f03a5e5c6507ea4e85a9723889bc5 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 1464 |
| 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 | 2004-10-19 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2004-10-26 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
| 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 |
