Pickleridge Lagoon Soft Sediment Infauna Survey (2006 - 2013)
This dataset is a collation of data from subtidal benthic soft sediment sampling carried out within Pickleridge lagoon, which is a feature of the Pembrokeshire Marine Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The purpose of this data capture was to aid in the monitoring and condition assessment of this Annex I feature.

Monitoring work is carried out at 3 fixed sample stations on each sampling visit. Infaunal sampling is carried out annually in Winter. Salinity and temperature are recorded continuously. Benthic invertebrate samples are processed by laboratories that are members of the National Marine Biological Analytical Quality Control (NMBAQC) scheme and random samples from each survey are also selected for audit by Unicomarine. Data captured methods. Abundance of benthic invertebrates (per 0.0044m2) and granulometry. Supporting determinants are: National Grid References recorded using hand held GPS and salinity and temperature which are continuously recorded at middle site using a data logger. Three repeatable stations are sampled (North, middle and South). All samples are collected using a corer (0.0044m2). Benthic invertebrate samples are sieved over a 0.5mm mesh.
