  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">The dataset contains a series of records for each of the non-native marine species currently identified as occurring in Wales. The records have been extracted from Countryside Council for Wales' (CCWs) Phase 1 Intertidal surveys, Marine Recorder data holdings, National Biodiversity Network (NBN) Gateway web source, MarLIN/DASSH web source, DEFRA Marine Protected Area (MPA) non-native GIS layers, Local Environmental Record Centres (LERC's ), and other ad-hoc records collated by CCW staff or supplied by third parties. The purpose of this data collation is to monitor the spread of non-native marine species in Wales by creating a current and meaningful atlas using GIS layers for individual layers.</dc:description>
