The data were originally held within the Welsh abstraction of the former Environment Agency Wales BIOSYS database, which was the primary database used for storing, managing, and reporting data from freshwater and marine biological surveys across a range of taxonomic groups. The data are now managed and maintained by Natural Resources Wales (NRW). These records represent ground-truthing data collected to support the ecological assessment of saltmarsh habitats within the transitional and coastal waters of Wales. Welsh saltmarsh data previously held within BIOSYS are updated as new monitoring information becomes available through NRW. Saltmarsh monitoring is undertaken between June and September, with records updated following each sampling season. The extracted dataset is a subset of the full dataset and includes only data collected and owned by Natural Resources Wales.
