| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | CEFAS70e51b25-dc2f-41ce-9a11-5b2156d9b1e1 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CEFAS3875 |

| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | Counts and presence/absence of species of macrofauna identified from 75 grab samples collected at Kentish Knock East Marine Conservation Zone between the 4 h and 27th January 2014 The data were collected for the Marine Conversation Zones Project funded by the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA). |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Hamon Grab samples were collected at 75 sites within Kentish Knock East Marine Conservation Zoneduring survey CEND0114. A Mini-Hamon Grab with a sampling area of 0.1 m2, was deployed from the stern gantry of the vessel to collect sediment from the seabed On recovery, the grab was emptied into a large plastic bin and a representative sub-sample of sediment (approx. 0.5 litres) taken for Particle Size Analysis (PSA). The sample was stored in a labelled plastic container and frozen ready for transfer to a laboratory ashore. The remaining sample was photographed and the volume of sediment measured and recorded. Benthic fauna were collected by washing the sample with sea water over a 1 mm sieve. The retained >1 mm fraction was transferred to a labelled container and preserved in 4% buffered formaldehyde for later analysis ashore. |
