Solent Maritime SAC 2013 Vegetated Shingle

Description

Natural England contracted Footprint Ecology to undertake a vegetation survey of Shingle and associated structures across a range of sites in the Solent area of southern England in 2013. This was designed to be at least partially comparable to the original survey of Solent vegetated shingle sites carried out by Cox and Crowther in 2000 (Cox and Crowther 2001). The methodology was based on the National Vegetation Classification, with additional communities identified by Cox and Crowther. Data were collected using NVC quadrats across the surveyed sites. These quadrats were geolocated using hand held GPS. Vegetated shingle communities were found at all the sites visited.
