Title

2009 Defra MB0102 2B Distribution of Thyasira gouldi in the United Kingdom and Isle of Man

Abstract

This layer shows the distribution of the Northern Hatchet-Shell, Thyasira gouldi, a Wildlife and Countryside Act Species. This layer forms one of a set of data layers created for the Defra MB0102 contract. This work will support the delivery of a network of Marine Protected Areas as required to meet existing international and national obligations and commitments, including Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs), a new measure to be delivered as part of the Marine and Coastal Access Bill, and equivalent measures under Scottish legislation. The availability of these data layers will also be of importance in underpinning Marine Planning (e.g. licensing) in our marine area.

Lineage

This dataset was created as part of the Defra MB0102 contract. Data was collated from a range of conservation and academic organisations and through a literature search. The survey used to collate the point data are: JNCCMNCR10000249 1987 OPRU HRE Portland and Weymouth Harbours survey JNCCMNCR10000296 1969 Gage Lochs Etive, Creran and Lochnell Bay sublittoral survey JNCCMNCR10000379 1990 OPRU Sullom Voe sublittoral monitoring JNCCMNCR10000382 1974-78 SOTEAG Shetland sublittoral sediment survey MRCON01900000001 1994 - AURIS - Argyll Argyll Hamilton MRCON01900000004 1991 - ERT - Alba Alba North Chevron MRCON01900000008 1984 - IOE - North Alwyn North Alwyn Total MRCON01900000059 1991 - AURIS - East Brae East Brae Marathon MRCON01900000068 1990 - IOE - Bruce Bruce BP MRCON01900000075 1982 - OPRU - Buchan Buchan A BP MRCON01900000076 1988 - OPRU - Buchan Buchan A BP MRCON01900000077 1983 - OPRU - Beryl Beryl A Mobil MRCON01900000078 1985 - OPRU - Beryl Beryl A Mobil MRCON01900000079 1988 - FSC/OPRU - Beryl Beryl A Mobil MRCON01900000081 1983 - OPRU - Beryl Beryl B Mobil MRCON01900000082 1985 - OPRU - Beryl Beryl B Mobil MRCON01900000083 1988 - FSC/OPRU - Beryl Beryl B Mobil MRCON01900000113 1991 - M-Scan - Crawford Crawford Hamilton MRCON01900000116 1988 - AUMS - Curlew 29/7 Shell MRCON01900000119 1986 - OPRU - Cyrus Cyrus BP MRCON01900000126 1989 - AUMS - Don Don 211/18a-13 BP MRCON01900000141 1989 - AUMS - Emerald Emerald Sovereign MRCON01900000145 1990 - AURIS - North Everest North Everest Amoco MRCON01900000159 1981 - OPRU - Forties Forties 'FA' BP MRCON01900000160 1983 - OPRU - Forties Forties 'FA' BP MRCON01900000161 1984 - OPRU - Forties Forties 'FC' BP MRCON01900000163 1988 - OPRU - SE Forties Forties 'FE' BP MRCON01900000181 1989 - AUMS - Highlander Highlander Texaco MRCON01900000191 1992 - AURIS - Hudson Hudson Amerada MRCON01900000213 1990 - AURIS - Lomond Lomond Amoco MRCON01900000225 1983 - OPRU - Maureen Maureen A Phillips MRCON01900000226 1988 - AUMS - Maureen Maureen A Phillips MRCON01900000227 1993 - Gardline - Maureen Maureen A Phillips MRCON01900000229 1988 - AUMS - Miller Miller BP MRCON01900000238 1985 - OPRU - Moray Firth 11/25 Shell MRCON01900000245 1991 - ERT - Murdoch Murdoch Conoco MRCON01900000252 1990 - IOE - Murchison Murchison Conoco MRCON01900000345 1989 - AUMS - Osprey Osprey Shell MRCON01900000351 1990 - IOE - Piper Piper B Elf MRCON01900000374 1990 - AUMS - Scott Scott Amerada MRCON01900000377 1990 - IOE - Saltire Saltire A Elf MRCON01900000388 1996 - ERT - 211/12a-18 Well 211/12a-18 BP MRCON01900000398 1986 - OPRU - Thistle Thistle A Britoil MRCON01900000399 1986 - OPRU - Thistle Thistle A Britoil MRCON01900000402 1982 - OPRU - Thistle Thistle A Britoil MRCON01900000403 1985 - OPRU - Thistle Thistle A Britoil MRCON01900000404 1988 - OPRU - Thistle Thistle A Britoil MRCON01900000405 1991 - AUMS - Tiffany Tiffany Agip MRCON01900000410 1991 - AUMS - Tony Tony Agip MRCON01900000412 1989 - AUMS - Tern Tern A Shell MRCON01900000467 1987 - AUMS - 14/11 Well 1 BP MRCON01900000472 1987 - AUMS - 16/27B Well 4Z BP MRCON01900000477 1987 - AUMS - 21/12 Well 2B BP MRCON01900000479 1988 - AUMS - 16/28 Site 'H' BP Full survey information is available from the survey table in the project geodatabase which can be joined to the layer by the Survey ID. Field Explanations. Original Scientific Name: The scientific name (or in some cases the common name) recorded in the original survey. Scientific Name: The current accepted name for the taxon using WORMS as the definitive species list. See link: www.marinespecies.org Survey ID: A link to survey information. Where data is entered in to Marine Recorder this refers to the MR SurveyID. A few surveys could not be entered into Marine Recorder without risk of duplication occuring. e.g. Seasearch data that will be entered into MR at a later date, data from polygons etc. These have been given a project surveyID using the reference: MPALAYERS0000XX Date: The date the species was recorded. Vague dates have been entered as the first of a month, if only the month is known, e.g. 01/03/89 or as the first of January if only the year is known, e.g. 01/01/78. Unknown dates show as 00:00:00. Location Name: The location or site name where provided. SampleID: For Marine Recorder surveys the sample_key field has been entered. Event name: Where known an event name has been provided. Latitude: The latitude of the sample point. Longitude: The longitude of the sample point. Determiner: Where known the determiner of the species record as specified in Marine Recorder. For non MR surveys the recorder has been inputted into this field as it has been assumed that the recorder is the determiner unless otherwise stated. Status: The species status as defined by three terms; Present - the default indicating the presence of a species. Absent - Absence records have only been included in a small number of cases where a key historical population has disappeared. Uncertain - Indicates that the identification of the species may be incorrect and further investigation is required. Coordinate Precision: An estimate of the spatial resolution in metres of the co-ordinate, based on survey method, date and the derivation of the co-ordinates . This ranges from 10-10000 metres.
