Copies of the forms are held at the Dorset Environmental Records Centre. This was the first co-ordinated subtidal survey off the Dorset coast. The objectives of the survey were to map and describe the dominant subtidal fauna and flora and compile a comprehensive species list of the area around Kimmeridge Bay (Worbarrow Tout - Clavell Tower). Transect lines of obvious land marks were used for rough position fixing. The boat skipper took horizontal sextant fixes at regular intervals during the dive. K.J.
