Bangor University School of Ocean Science (SOS) Prince Madog Towed Video Survey in Liverpool Bay (June 2012)

  • English
  • wel
  • All

This dataset contains seabed habitat observations derived from drop-down video surveys, still imagery and GoPro camera footage collected during a marine survey of Liverpool Bay undertaken by the School of Ocean Sciences, Bangor University in June 2012. Survey work was carried out aboard the research vessel Prince Madog to support the characterisation of seabed habitats and associated biological communities within the survey area.


Analysis was undertaken using video footage and still images collected from nine survey stations. The resulting dataset provides observations of seabed substrate, habitat features and conspicuous benthic flora and fauna recorded during image interpretation. The survey contributes to the evidence base for understanding the distribution and condition of marine habitats within Liverpool Bay.


Only a redacted version of this data is available under the Open Governance Licence and available for public use, see Limitation on Public Access and Use Constraints. Species/habitats listed in NRWs guidance on ecological data and information exempt from general release will be redacted on release.

Lineage

Field survey work was undertaken in June 2012 by the School of Ocean Sciences, Bangor University aboard the research vessel Prince Madog in Liverpool Bay. Data were collected using drop-down video systems supplemented by still photography and GoPro imagery.


Following field collection, video footage and imagery from nine survey stations were reviewed and interpreted to identify seabed substrate characteristics, habitat features and visible biological communities. Observations were recorded and compiled into a georeferenced habitat dataset for use in marine habitat assessment and mapping. The dataset represents the interpreted results of the June 2012 survey imagery.
