Mini Hamon <span style="background-color: rgba(246, 213, 217, 1);">...</span> rab samples were collected at Nineteen stations within the Allbony Bay Marine Conservation Zone on 2FGL0914 A Mini-Hamon Grab with a surface sampling area of 0.1 m2, was deployed to collect sediment from the seabed. Once recovered, the sample was emptied into a suitable container, photographed, and the sample volume measured. For valid samples >5 litres, a small scoop was used to take a representative sub-sample (approx. 500 ml) of sediment for particle size analysis (PSA). The remaining sample was washed over a 1 mm sieve to retain the faunal fraction, photographed and preserved with an 8% buffered formaldehyde solution. Samples of <5 litres volume were photographed and discarded.
