Title

Species point records from 1991 FRPB Belhaven Bay (Dunbar) survey

Abstract

The survey details the findings of a survey carried out of the intertidal and subtidal sediment around a long sea outfall in Bellhaven Bay, Dunbar. No major temporal or spatial differences have been detected in the benthic faunal and community data. The lack of effect from the waste dumping probably stems from the mobile nature of the sediments in the area, such that the invertebrate species present in the area are already adapted to coping with a high degree of sediment disturbance
