2004-2005, Centre for Marine and Coastal Studies Ltd., Greater Gabbard Offshore Wind Farm, Benthic Grab Sampling Survey

Description

Centre for Marine and Coastal Studies Ltd (CMACS) undertook a benthic grab sampling survey in the outer Thames estuary between November 2004 and May 2005 to inform the environmental impact assessment for the proposed Greater Gabbard offshore wind farm.  The grab sampling is part of a suite of offshore ecological survey work also comprising drop down camera survey, beam and otter trawling which will together provide an benthic ecological characterisation of the proposed development site.
