2022-2024 FISP: Ecosystem Benefits of UK Oyster Aquaculture Sites Mumbles 2023 Dredge Sampling Survey

As part of the Fisheries Industry Science Partnerships (FISP) project ‘Ecosystem Benefits of UK Oyster Aquaculture Sites’, project partners Tethys Oysters Ltd. / Atlantic Edge Oysters Ltd.,...

P-wave velocity and attenuation (1/Q) data of water-saturated sand pack (from dry to full saturation) at 10 kilohertz frequency measured using an acoustic pulse tube under 10 MPa effective pressure

The data comprise P-wave velocity and attenuation (1/Q) measurements of water-saturated sand packs (four samples) across saturation levels, from dry to fully saturated. Using an acoustic pulse...

Coastal Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Sustainability (CBESS) macrofaunal abundance in mudflat and saltmarsh habitats

The dataset details macrofaunal abundance across 6 intertidal sites in the winter and summer of 2013. The data provide a quantitative measure of the invertebrate species present within the top 10cm...

Coastal Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service Sustainability (CBESS) macrofaunal biomass in mudflat and saltmarsh habitats

The dataset details macrofaunal biomass across 6 intertidal sites in the winter and summer of 2013. The data provide a quantitative measure of the biomass of individual invertebrate species present...

Habitat point records from 1988-89 NRA Orwell Estuary littoral survey

The main objective of this survey was to assess the impact of the major discharge, Cliff Quay Sewage Treatment works on the intertidal fauna of the Orwell Estuary. All twenty five sites were...

2001 Strategic Environmental Assessment SEA2 Technical report - A review of pockmarks in the UK part of the North Sea, with particular respect to their biology

As part of the Department of Trade and Industry's (now Department of Energy and Climate Change) Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA2), this report reviews pockmarks in the North Sea. Pockmarks...

Late Quaternary palynological data from the eastern Andean montane forest of Ecuador

Palaeoecological proxy data (pollen, non-pollen palynomorph (NPP), micro-charcoal, macro-charcoal, loss-on-ignition (LOI) and x-ray fluorescence (XRF)) recovered from lake sediments, cliff...

The Eocene-Oligocene Biotic Turnover in the North Atlantic and Associated Palaeoclimatic Change

PROJECT DETAILS ONLY - NO DATA. We propose a detailed study of the biotic record (foraminifera and calcareous nannofossils) of the Eocene/Oligocene transition in ODP Hole 647 in the Labrador Sea....

Deformation and acoustic emission of Neapolitan Yellow Tuff

These data represent a series of analyses exploring the seismic behaviours of low-cohesion volcanic sediments – in this case the Neapolitan Yellow Tuff - under varying strain rates. The data...

Habitat point records from 1990 SWT Orwell Estuary littoral survey

Data from this survey appears to be suspect. Angulus tenuis records are uncertain since they are recorded here for muddy sediments, but they are normally found in sand. Possible that they could be...

Habitat point records from 1989 NRA River Stour sublittoral survey

One replicate was taken at each of 20 subtidal sites on the Stour Estuary. The survey was undertaken in April 1989. A 0.1 square meter Day-grab was used to take the samples which were sieved on...

Coastal Physiographic Features - Barrier Beach

This shapefile is of the coastal physiographic feature 'Barrier Beach'. The polygons in this shapefile represent the areas in which Barrier Beaches are located in the UK. Where, Barrier Beach is...

Species point records from 1991 NRA Blackwater Estuary sublittoral survey

Twenty one sublittoral sites on the River Blackwater estuary were surveyed in July 1991. Three replicates of 0.1 square meters were taken at each site using a Day Grab. Each sample was sieved...
