D1648/001/01 - CCW Freshwater Fish ad hoc Records for Article 17 Reporting

Subject Fish
Abstract Freshwater fish species records collected by CCW staff, contractors or members of the public. N.B. this dataset is an interim upload to allow Article 17 reporting to be completed. The data are being entered into Marine Recorder and a regular export will be carried out once this is complete. This export will replace this dataset.
Species Groups Bony Fish (Actinopterygii) [7], Jawless Fish (Agnatha) [12]
Geographic Coverage/Site Name General: Wales
Geographic Coverage Notes All Wales. However, survey effort varies greatly and the dataset should not be assumed to be statistically representative. NGRs have been reported to the highest level of accuracy available: in most cases this is 6 figures or better (i.e. AB123456).
Dataset Owner Natural Resources Wales
Dataset Contact Barnaby Letheren
Date Range 2003 - 2012

Original Title CCW Freshwater Fish ad hoc Records for Article 17 Reporting
Temporal Coverage Notes All records are from the period 2000-2012. Most have an exact date but some are MM-YYYY or YYYY only.
Purpose Various: site condition assessments, surveys, ad hoc records. Dataset compiled for Habitats Directive Article 17 reporting purposes. All Wales. However, survey effort varies greatly and the dataset should not be assumed to be statistically representative. NGRs have been reported to the highest level of accuracy available: in most cases this is 6 figures or better (i.e. AB123456).
Capture Methods Includes records collected by various methods including hydroacoustic monitoring, netting, electrofishing and visual. Records from members of the public are normally validated with photographic / video evidence.
Verification/Validation Procedures This dataset is a collation of records that constitutes a gap filling exercise rather than a coherent dataset in itself. Consequently it should not be viewed as being spatially or temporally representative. However, it may be used in combination with other data to make assessments of the range and / or occurrence of relevant species. We have high confidence in the taxonomic quality of the records.
