  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">A Natural England commissoined verification survey of intertidal sediments within the Beachy Head West rMCZ. Phase I Biotope mapping was carried out across the rMCZ for broad scale habitats where intertidal coarse sediment occurred. Phase II Infaunal sampling was carried out to provide information on the benthic infaunal assemblages and particle size distribution of the study sites by means of core sampling. Sediment surface scrapes were obtained for heavy metals and organic contaminants analysis. The data was used to produce a EUNIS Level 3 boradscale habitat map of the Beachy Head West rMCZ.</dc:description>
