  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Grab sampling surveys are conducted within the Skomer Marine Conservation Zone approximately every 3-4 years since 1993. 

Since 2009 twelve sites have been re-visited and sampled on each survey. Two samples are collected at each site for infaunal analysis, and one sample obtained for particle size analysis (PSA). The benthic samples are collected using a 0.1m2 Day Grab and sieved with a .5mm sieve.</dc:description>
