Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | Newquay And The Gannel Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ) Survey Infauna Data - 2013 |
Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | INFAUNA |
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. | CEFASffe76b34-cbdc-484f-a259-a7798d5ec453 |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | CEFAS3890 |
Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |

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 40 grab samples collected at Newquay And The Gannel Marine Conservation Zone between the 16th February and 3rd April 2013 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 115 sites within Newquay And The Gannel Marine Conservation Zone during survey SNGN0213. 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 8% buffered formaldehyde for later analysis ashore. |
