The survey area comprises part of the South Devon pilot site for the FCE Interreg project FISH INTEL. Data used to ground truth and document the habitat used by species tracked within the survey area using acoustic telemetry methods during FISH INTEL. At each survey site/station a 200 x 0.5 metre transect was taken. Sites/stations based on previous survey experience in the area and locations of acoustic receivers. Data will help document habitats (and associated sessile fauna) that focal species of the FISH INTEL project interact with at different temporal and spatial scales and inform if and how these species use these areas, informing future management of these species as well as the implementation and management of protected areas going forward.
