Metadata: 1993 - 1994 School of Biological Sciences, Swansea University, Sedimentary Shores in Poole Harbour, Box core sampling survey
Abstract:
All these records relate to "Dyrynda, Lewis (1994) Sedimentary shores in Poole Harbour: Bait harvesting and other human impacts" A copy of the report is held at English Nature (Dorset Team). Poole Harbour is known to support substantial populations of bait species. The aims of this study, commissioned by the South-West Region of English Nature, are to assess the ecological status of the northern shores of Poole Harbour in terms of the invertebrate infauna, with particular emphasis on the larger species used for fishing bait. Nine shore locations were selected for detailed evaluation, 7 within the north-east sector of the Harbour, and 2 to the north-west. The shores selected represented a range of sedimentary types and all experience significant levels of bait digging. Box core samples of 0.05 m sq were taken at a range of levels at 50m intervals along a downshore transect at each site. Two randomly located samples were taken at each site (0.05m sq box core was pushed into the sediment to a depth of 0.15m), this was sieved through a 1mm mesh. Infaunal samples were identified in the lab. All species densities are expressed as numbers per metre sq of shore. Fieldwork was undertaken between November 1993 - February 1994.

Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 3750 |
Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 1993 - 1994 School of Biological Sciences, Swansea University, Sedimentary Shores in Poole Harbour, Box core sampling survey |
File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 6fe00f80de934fceef1cd468b6966a40 |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | MRLRC00100000540 |
Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1993-11-01 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1994-02-28 |
Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | notPlanned |
