Metadata: 1995 CEMEX Offshore of Harwich, macroinvertebrate sample
Abstract:
The survey was carried out in an area approx. 15km to the east of Harwich. 72 Hammon grab (0.2m2) samples from 24 stations were collected in total - at 12 stations a single grab was taken and at the other 12 stations 5 grabs were taken. 200 taxa in 12 phyla were identified, (85% to species level). Survey was carried out by Unicomarine Ltd for Oakwood Environmental Consultants

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. | 1995 CEMEX Offshore of Harwich, macroinvertebrate sample |
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. | 86866445f68402252ff2c603028ff022 |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | MRMLN0010000003F |
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 | 1995-09-17 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1995-09-22 |
Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 100 |
Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/ISO_19139_Schemas/resources/uom/gmxUom.xml#m |

Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Abstract: The survey was carried out in an area approx. 15km to the east of Harwich. 72 Hammon grab (0.2m2) samples from 24 stations were collected in total - at 12 stations a single grab was taken and at the other 12 stations 5 grabs were taken. 200 taxa in 12 phyla were identified, (85% to species level). Survey was carried out by Unicomarine Ltd for Oakwood Environmental Consultants. Purpose: The survey was carried out as part of a marine aggregate dredging application. NB. Exact date of each survey was not known - date of Sept. 17th 1995 has been used for all 24 sites. Most of the data collected was quantitative so has been recorded as quantitative (nos per area) under species data type, although presence/absence was used for some colony forming fauna e.g. hydroids and bryozoans. Further information is available in the report regarding individual species found at each grab however only the average number of species from each site has been entered as the report does not make it clear which results came from each site. Information on sediment particle size for each grab sample is also available |
