Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 4119 |
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. | 1990-1996 United Kingdom National Marine Monitoring Programme |
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. | 89a67845f8c26380bfe934bb307cbff3 |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | MBAMNMMP00000001 |
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 | 1990-01-01 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1996-04-25 |
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'. | annually |
Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | Marine species abundance data from the National Marine Monitoring Programme. |
Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Annual survey data including biological monitoring as part of the National Marine Monitoring Programme. A consortium of organisations involved. 1987/88 the Marine Pollution Monitoring Management Group (MPMMG) reviewed the monitoring carried out in UK estuaries and coastal waters and concluded that there would be considerable merit in the regular sampling of a network of coastal monitoring stations. A National Marine Monitoring Programme (NMMP) was agreed and its initial phase was aimed at producing a co-ordinated and reliable data set of nationally significant contaminants, benthic biology (living in the substrate) and biological effects in estuarine and coastal waters. A network of 87 sites throughout the UK was devised from which data were collected by the six participating organisations. Methodology for these surveys were laid out in the NMMP monitoring manual available via http://www.jncc.gov.uk/page-2660. |
