Marine epibenthic and habitat data quantified in August 2024 in an offshore mussel farm in Lyme Bay using a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). At each survey site/station a 100 x 0.25 metre transect was taken. Sites/stations are within the mussel farm and are based on previous survey experience in the area. Data will be used to help assess the ecological impact of the mussel farm by comparing benthic species diversity and abundance to nearby control sites, with the aim to inform the future management and implementation of aquaculture installations.
