Dataset homepage

Citation

Cumbria Biodiversity Data Centre (2017). Norman and Florence Hammond records. Seawatch and coastal survey records.. Occurrence dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/1u5tii accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-02-06.

Description

A collection of records of marine organisms collated by Norman and Florence Hammond before 2005.

Purpose

To represent the marine flora and fauna of the Solway and the wider Irish Sea more completely.

Sampling Description

Quality Control

The dataset has been verified as far as is practical from local wildife experts and organisations. The work was part of an active verification project, the report of which is available on request. However, a level of uncertainty around the dataset remains, and errors in geography almost certainly exist.

Method steps

  1. Collation of sightings from organised surveys, media reports and casual observations.

Taxonomic Coverages

Geographic Coverages

Northern Irish Sea and Solway coastal areas, stretching from Stranraer to North Wales and around the Isle of Man.
