Summary

Locations of grab samples with Particle Size Analysis (PSA) results from Wight-Barfleur Reef SCI (CEND 03/13). ArcGIS point feature class. Locations of grab samples with Particle Size Analysis (PSA) results across Wight-Barfleur Reef candidate Special Area of Conservation (cSAC). Grab samples were collected during the following survey: Wight-Barfleur Reef survey aboard the RV Cefas Endeavour during cruise code CEND0313, sampling between 19/03/2013 and 24/03/2013. In total,14 PSA samples were collected during CEND0313. All but one of the 14 samples were collected using a 0.1 m� mini Hamon grab(HG), the exception being a single sample (HP31) collected using the larger 0.25 m� Hamon grab (LH). A sedimentsubsample was taken from each grab sample for particle size analysis (PSA). Sediment samples were preocessed following the PSA methodology recommended by the National Marine Biological Quality Control (NMBAQC) scheme(Mason, C. 2011. NMBAQC's Best Practice Guidance. Particle Size Analysis (PSA) for Supporting Biological Analysis. National Marine Biological AQC Coordinating Committee, 72pp, December 2011.http://www.nmbaqcs.org/media/10839/nmbaqc%20best%20practice%20guidance_particle%20size%20analysis.pdf).
