Mini Hamon Grab samples were collected at 26 sites within Cape Bank Marine Conservation Zone on survey CEND 2514, a Mini-Hamon Grab with a surface sampling area of 0.1 m2, was deployed to collect sediment from the seabed On recovery, the grab contents were emptied into a large plastic bin and a representative sub-sample of sediment (approx. 0.5 litres) taken for Particle Size Analysis (PSA). The remaining sample was photographed and sieved over a 1 mm mesh sieve to collect the benthic fauna. Fauna were preserved in buffered 4% formaldehyde for later processing ashore.
