  • Benthic Habitat Mapping of Cardigan Bay, in Relation to the Distribution of the Bottlenose Dolphin
    Benthic Habitat Mapping of Cardigan Bay, in relation to the distribution of the Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus). A dissertation submitted in part candidature for the Degree of B.Sc., Institute of Biological Sciences, University of Wales, Aberystwyth. By Hannah Elizabeth Vallin © Sarah Perry May 2011 1 Acknowledgments I would like to give my thanks to several people who made contributions to this study being carried out. Many thanks to be given firstly to the people of Cardigan Bay Marine Wild life centre who made this project possible, for providing the resources and technological equipment needed to carry out the investigation and for their wealth of knowledge of Cardigan Bay and its local wildlife. With a big special thanks to Steve Hartley providing and allowing the survey to be carried out on board the Sulaire boat. Also, to Sarah Perry for her time and guidance throughout, in particular providing an insight to the OLEX system and GIS software. To Laura Mears and the many volunteers that contributed to participating in the sightings surveys during the summer, and for all their advice and support. I would like to thank my dissertation supervisor Dr. Helen Marshall for providing useful advice, support, and insightful comments to writing the report, as well as various staff members of Aberystwyth University who provided educational support. Finally many thanks to my family and friends who have supported me greatly for the duration. Thankyou. i Abstract The distribution and behaviour of many marine organisms such the bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncates, are influenced by the benthic habitat features, environmental factors and affinities between species of their surrounding habitats.

  • HISTORY of ABERYSTWYTH
    HISTORY of ABERYSTWYTH We all think of Aberystwyth as a seaside resort town. The presence of the ruined castle suggests a coloured medieval history, fraught with battles and land forever changing hands between powerful rulers. However, there was evidence of human activity in Aberystwyth long before this time, so we thought it might be worth going through the history of Aberyst- wyth right from the start. The earliest recorded human activity in Aberystwyth area dates back to around 11,500 years ago during the mesolithic period. The mesolithic period signalled the end of a long and arduous ice age, which saw most of the worlds surface covered in ice, leav- ing only the most hardy plants and animals to survive. As the ice retreaded in Mid Wales, this revealed large supplies of stone, including flint at Tan-Y-Bwlch which lies at the foot of Pen Dinas hill. There is strong evidence that the area was used for flint knapping, which involved the shaping of the flint deposits left behind by the retreating ice in order to make weapons for hunting for hunting animals. The flint could be shaped into sharp points, which could be used as primitive spears and other equipment, used by the hunter gatherer to obtain food. Around 3000 years ago there is evidence of an early Celtic ringfort on the site of Pen Dinas. The ringfort is a circular fortified set- tlement which was common throughout Northern Europe in the Bronze and Iron ages. What remains of this particular example at Aberystwyth is now located on private land on Pen Dinas, and can only be accessed by arrangement.
