Coastal Lagoon Survey 1984 1984

Abstract

The fauna and flora of several Eastern Scottish coastal lagoons were investigated during September 1984.

The ponds investigated were:

  • Island Farm Pond, and adjacent flooded field – within Skinflats SSSI, Central Region
  • Three ponds – within Proposed Local Nature Reserve, Skinflats, Central Region.
  • Ponds – within Elliot Links SSSI, Arbroath, Tayside Region.

This report describes sampling procedures, results of benthic sampling, pond-net sampling, habitat description, and physico-chemical conditions within the ponds. The results are discussed in relation to known previous surveys, or to information on adjacent habitats. Full data sheets are provided. Recording sheets have been completed for each pond.

Please note that this resource has been produced from a scan of an original document. You may therefore experience fluctuations in quality.
