Mounts Bay Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ) characterisation report 2016.
Abstract
This report primarily explores data acquired from the first dedicated monitoring survey of Mounts Bay MCZ, which will form the initial point in a monitoring time series against which feature (and site) condition can be assessed in the future. The results presented will be used to develop recommendations for future monitoring, including the operational testing of specific metrics which may indicate whether the condition of the feature has been maintained, is improving or is in decline.
