| 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. | 1997 Helford River Survey Monitoring Report No. 5 for 1996 (Survey data 1986) |
| 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. | 651098335b66c052e39aa27b2ea1f7b9 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | MRMLN00400000095 |
| 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 |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1996-01-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1996-12-31 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | notPlanned |
| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | An intertidal monitoring programme was carried out at six sites covering the north and south banks of the Helford River, (both sides of the Gillan inlet and an exposed headland). |
| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | An intertidal monitoring programme was carried out at six sites covering the north and south banks of the Helford River, (both sides of the Gillan inlet and an exposed headland). At each site a transect was identified by metal bolts that had been used to set up the transects in 1986. Quadrats (0.25 m sq.) were recorded along the transect at 5m, 10m or 20m intervals. This was continued down the shore at intervals to the furthest extent at extreme low tide. Within each quadrat the number of species was counted, however, if the number was too great then an estimate or percentage covered was given. Zonation was described along each transect line with fauna and flora recorded for various intervals. The survey was conducted for the Helford Voluntary Marine Conservation Area Group by Pamela E Tompsett, Brain and Elizabeth Jackson, Dr Paul Gainey and Andrew Tompsett, with funding from the World Wildlife Fund for Nature and English Nature. Nb. positions were only recorded at the top and bottom of the transect and not for each individual quadrat, therefore there will be a difference of upto 100m from the recorded grid ref depending on the location of each quadrat. |
