East of Haig Fras MCZ: Sea-pen and Burrowing Megafauna Communities: Quality Assurance 2020

Abstract

East of Haig Fras (MCZ) is part of a network of sites designed to meet conservation objectives under the Marine and Coastal Access Act (2009). These sites will also contribute to an ecologically coherent network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) across the North-east Atlantic, as agreed under the Oslo Paris (OSPAR) Convention and other international commitments to which the UK is signatory.

This report presents the findings of an external quality assurance (QA) analysis undertaken on the outputs of the JNCC’s recent analysis of camera tow video footage, collected on the CEND0915 survey within East of Haig Fras Marine Conservation Zone.

Presented as supplemental to the main report is the 'Analysis of data pertaining to Sea-pen and burrowing megafauna communities in East of Haig Fras MCZ' document.
