Lineage

"Natural England contracted Seastar Survey Ltd to undertake survey work in order to assess the condition of part of the Isles of Scilly Complex SAC reef features.The main survey aim was to develop a baseline dataset and assess the condition of the Isles of Scilly SAC complex, focusing on the following Annex I subtidal reef sub-features: Kelp forest communities rock daim was to study the species composition of the characteristic biotopes within the kelp forest and vertical rock sub-features by analysing the presence and abundance of composite species, using in-situ observations as well as still and video photography. The subtidal monitoring initiated in 2011 provided a baseline for a long-term monitoring programme under the Habitats Directive. The current survey follows on from the 2011 survey work (Irving and Northen, 2012) attempting to improve the existing baseline and gather data from new areas to enable significant changes to be detected, which will inform the site managers as to any adaptations to the SAC management that may need to be made in the future. d"
