As part of the development process Seagreen will be carrying out Environmental Impact Assessments for the wind farms. In order to inform these assessments Seagreen have been collecting and processing the required ecological data to characterise the baseline conditions of the area. Reports within this series detail: -Analysis from boat-based surveys for marine mammals and seabirds -Analysis of aerial survey methods to record seabirds and marine mammals -Report on the analyses carried out on the marine mammal data collected during aerial surveys -Analysis of existing satellite telemetry and aerial survey data to describe the abundance and distribution of harbour (or common) and grey seals in the Firths of Forth and Tay -Report on Cetacean baseline characterisation for the Firth of Tay based on existing data -Marine mammal noise impact assessment for seals, bottlenose dolphins and harbour porpoises There will be no limitations when published on the Marine Data Exchange otherRestrictions Data Must be used in accordance to the Marine Data Exchange's Terms of Use: https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/content/info/terms-of-use otherRestrictions Crown Estate Scotland +44 (0)131 260 6070 enquiries@crownestatescotland.com custodian Carol Sparling SMRU Limited ces@smru.co.uk originator Crown Estate Scotland +44 (0)131 260 6070 enquiries@crownestatescotland.com distributor Lisa Howell Seagreen GIS Analyst Lisa.Howell@fluor.com owner notPlanned Documents https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/details/CES-401/summary A link to the web service or dataset. https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk A link to the general host site.
