Quality and validity

Lineage

MFA landings data for Mussels from reported shellfish landings at ports in England and Wales. To identify the economic value of shellfisheries within inshore waters and would also be of relevance for steering marine developments away from these important fisheries. The data is subject to mis-reporting errors; CEFAS shellfish distribution maps provided in OSGB36, therefore, may be slight offset in positional accuracy as a result of the datum transformation process
