    "name": "Intertidal Monitoring of LR.Rkp.SwSed Pools in the Cardigan Bay Special Area of Conservation (SAC) 2004",
    "description": "Rockpools are an important sub-feature of the 'Reef' feature of the Cardigan Bay SAC, in that they provide habitats of high species richness, often with species that are restricted to rockpool habitats only. The nature of rockpools, particularly those with sediment in the bottom, provides additional challenges to developing a repeatable and reliable method for monitoring of these features. This dataset contains the results of a survey investigating the extent, distribution and species richness of LR.Rkp.SwSed (sand scoured) rockpools at Llanina Point, Cei Bach. Rockpools are an important sub-feature of the 'Reef' feature of the Cardigan Bay SAC, in that they provide habitats of high species richness, often with species that are restricted to rockpool habitats only. Taxonomic identification carried out by experienced intertidal surveyors. Positional accuracy using the dGPS is expected to be 1-5 metres. The aims for the survey of the rockpools at Llanina Point, Cei Bach were to: - map and assess the current extent and distribution of LR.Rkp.SwSed pools within this area - assess the species richness of these rockpools - record any presence of Japanese wireweed Sargassum muticum at the site.",
