Title

Habitat point records from 1973 NCC Dornoch Firth littoral survey

Abstract

The remit fot this survey was to investigate the distribution and abundance of the invertebrate macrofauna of the soft substrate shores of the Outer Dornoch Firth from Newton Point to Dornoch Point on the North side ( including the Skibo estuary ) and from Ferry Point to Portmahomack on the south side ( including the Inver Estuary ) and reports on some of the physical and chemical parameters of the enviroment. A further 10 sites and species data are included in the written report, but there was no other data so they are not included in the database record.
