Marine biological surveys of seabed and shore habitats in four areas exposed to strong tidal currents around southwest and northwest Wales, made in summer 2002 and 2003. meer
Marine biological surveys of seabed and shore habitats in four areas exposed to strong tidal currents around southwest and northwest Wales, made in summer 2002 and 2003. Survey work focused on rocky reefs and tidal rapids, and recorded the extent, quality and composition of the biotopes and communities. The results forms the basis for CCW Contract Science Report 611. Tidal Rapids are a UK Biodiversity Action Plan feature and rocky Reefs are an Annex I feature under the Habitats Directive (1992). These features are of conservation importance and the data collected during this survey is used to help define conservation objectives and inform decisions regarding protection and management. The survey was conducted on the shore or by diving. Survey methods were based on the standard Marine Nature Conservation Review (MNCR) techniques using in-situ identification of conspicuous species and description of habitat and community characteristics. Subtidal and intertidal components of the fieldwork were carried out separately. Further details of these standard methodologies are given in MNCR Rational and Methods (Hiscock 1996). Each site survey was recorded immediately on standard MNCR recording forms. Work carried out for CCW under contract by Coastal Assessment, Liaison & Monitoring (CALM), Jon Moore.
