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. | 1971 Solent preliminary survey of macroscopic bottom fauna |
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. | 70c5bf0aee2a08aff38fb129b83b9d48 |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | MRMLN001000000CB |
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 | 1971-06-01 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1971-10-31 |
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 |
Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | Ostrea edulis presence records from environmental survey of Solent. |
Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | A preliminary survey of macroscopic bottom fauna of the Solent. In connection with the proposal to site new urban development between the centers of Southampton and Portsmouth, an opportunity was given to the authors to conduct a general survey of the dominant macroscopic, epibenthic fauna of the Solent. The objective of this survey was to investigate the general composition, distribution and abundance of the major invertebrate species in the Solent area. Data was gathered from a total of 116 stations on ten separate days between the months of June and September 1971. In addition, during October of that year a 1-day survey of an oyster bed in Stanswood Bay was undertaken, involving additional 26 stations in the West Solent.was carried out from a 55-ft-side trawler using a 0.6-m wide oyster dredge with a wire mesh bag of 38 mm aperture. Two dredge tows of approximately 50 m were taken at each station. Results are based on the mean of the two samples obtained. If the two tows gave markedly different results further tows were taken. A van Veen grab of 0.1 m2 bite, weighted 20 kg of lead, was used on occasion to determine the nature of the substratum. |
