The bulk of sampling was carried out at shellfish merchants in Cornwall, where access to holding tanks was permitted, and where landings from different boats could frequently be intercepted before being mixed together. No coordinates of sampling locations were given and the area of sampling had to be estimated, being extrapolated from a chart provided in the paper.
