This included the monitoring of tidal heights and currents at six locations within the development site. At four of the monitoring locations waves and suspended sediment concentrations were also monitored. All instrumentation was initially deployed on the 3rd November 2004. In August 2006, Greater Gabbard Offshore Winds Limited (GGOWL) commissioned ABP Marine Environmental Research Ltd (ABPmer) to undertake a study of the metocean design variables for the wind farm site and to report on the results. This work was to follow on from an earlier study by ABPmer (2006), which specifically considered operational conditions.

A survey designed to support the data requirements for the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) was undertaken between November 2004 and March 2005. This included the monitoring of tidal heights and currents at six locations within the development site. At four of the monitoring locations waves and suspended sediment concentrations were also monitored.
