ABP Marine Environmental Research Ltd (ABPmer) was commissioned by Centrica Renewables in September 2007 to complete an investigation into the form and function of Race Bank, and surrounding seabed features. This study has been completed to support the coastal processes investigations undertaken as ...

A major hydrographic and geophysical survey has been undertaken over a large area off the north Norfolk and east Lincolnshire coasts. This area covers much of the Race Bank and Docking Shoal sand banks, where two offshore wind farms are proposed. Additional surveys were carried out within The Wash, ...

The report in this series reviews methodologies for measuring and assessing potential changes in marine mammal behaviour, abundance or distribution arising from the construction, operation and decommissioning of offshore windfarms. The report first describes impacts from offshore windfarms on marine...

This report is a review of aspects of documenting and disseminating marine biological data. In January 2007 two separate workshops were held one looking at marine biological data standards and the second on image and video standards. This report continues the work of these workshops in establishi...

Following from an initial investigation into the use of High Definition HD video for aerial waterbird survey undertaken in August 2007, this paper presents the findings of a full scale trial of the technique. The trial was carried out at the Shell Flats area off Blackpool, and aimed to satisfy five ...

Oxford Archaeology, supported by George Lambrick Archaeology and Heritage Consultancy, was commissioned by COWRIE Ltd to produce guidance on the assessment of cumulative impacts on the historic environment arising from offshore renewable energy projects. The guidance applies to all areas...

This report has been prepared by Subacoustech Ltd for COWRIE. This report details a series of underwater noise measurements undertaken during drilling operations for the pin piles used to secure the quadropod base of the SeaGen tidal turbine device in Strangford Lough, Northern Ireland. The results ...

The study was to identify the primary survey tools employed under the ALSF, and associated data sets. To examine the survey strategies and standard operation procedures used. To assess the nature and quality of the data produced from each technique and check the appropriateness of typical datasets f...

Extensive research into the ecological impacts of bottom trawling has indicated that fishing activities have the ability to significantly change seabed communities. Similarly, research into aggregate extraction has provided an understanding of the impacts on benthic communities within and in the vic...

Centre for Marine and Coastal Studies Ltd (CMACS) was appointed by SeaScape Energy Ltd in April 2005 to develop and undertake pre and during construction environmental monitoring to meet the requirements of the Food and Environment Protection Act (FEPA) licence issued to the wind farm developer.The ...
