The objectives of the scope of work are: - Identify linkages between specific seabird colonies and the site. - Estimate species-specific/site-specific foraging distances/locations for adult seabirds. - Provide information on the frequency of use of the site by individual adult seabirds for the species and locations selected. provide information on foraging locations by adult seabirds that can be used for habitat association modelling, and - To apply dyes to a larger sample of suitable target species, to allow re-sightings of individuals from ongoing boat-based surveys.ES Section - MORL (2012) ES, Volume 10, Appendix 4.5 C 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 University of Plymouth +44 (0)1752 600600 info@morayoffshorerenewables.co.uk originator Crown Estate Scotland +44 (0)131 260 6070 enquiries@crownestatescotland.com distributor Moray Offshore Renewables Ltd info@morayoffshorerenewables.co.uk owner notPlanned Geographic Information System https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk/details/CES-346/summary A link to the web service or dataset. https://www.marinedataexchange.co.uk A link to the general host site.

Work is currently underway investigating the potential impacts (both positive and negative) of the Wave Hub development in Cornwall, in collaboration with the University of Exeter. As well as on-going tracking work to determine the extent of site use by seabirds, this project involves the collection of detailed boatbased surveys to examine for any potential impacts during and following the construction of Wave Hub.
