Title

Broadscale survey and mapping of seabed and shore habitats and biota, Dornoch Firth pSAC - biotopes

Abstract

The aim of this survey was to map the biotopes in the area of Dornoch Firth between Bonar Bridge and a line extending from Dornoch to the mid-point of the intertidal rocks west of Portmahomack. This dataset is a map of the predicted biotope distributions for this area. Additional information source: Munro C & Nunny R (2000).
