  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">The purpose of this data capture was to determine whether Ophelia bicornis found at two sites within the lower Loughor estuary during Phase 1 surveys carried out by Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) were still present. The polychaete Ophelia bicornis is known from only a few locations in the UK and is therefore of national importance. It is particularly vulnerable to changes in the granulometric composition of the sediment, pollution and trampling.
