  • 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.

  • Report on the Welsh Beaches in Need of A
    Surfers Against Sewage Are Calling For A Review of the UK’s Bathing Water Sample Sites. Welsh Report Surfers Against Sewage (SAS) believe the weekly bathing water samples required by the EU Bathing Water Directive should be taken from the area of the bathing water that presents bathers and water users with the greatest source of pollution, if a significant amount of bathers and recreational water users can be expected to regularly use that area of beach. Surfers Against Sewage are concerned that 45 designated bathing water sample spots around the UK do not provide a true guide to the water quality that a bather or water user might experience at our bathing waters, including 11 in Wales. The implications are incredible concerning, as our widely promoted water quality results could be misleading the public about the potential health risk at a number of the UK’s bathing water. The Bathing Water Directive states (Art3.3) the monitoring point should be where most bathers are expected or the greatest risk of pollution is expected, according to the bathing water profile. In the UK Regulations (Schedule 4.1) Defra have transposed the obligation to locate the monitoring point where the most bathers are expected. This was part of the original transposition The European Commission’s Reference Document for the monitoring and assessment requirements of the revised Bathing Water Directive published August 2014 states: • A bathing water is not defined by its physical size. The length of its corresponding beach can vary between bathing waters and the distribution of bathers within a bathing water can be uneven.

  • Cwmsymlog Mine Case Study
    June 2016 Abandoned Mine Case Study: Cwmsymlog Silver & Lead Mine Cwmsymlog mine lies 12km northeast of Aberystwyth, Ceredigion. The mine workings extend for approximately 1km down the narrow Symlog valley from its head near the shore of Llyn Pendam. The Nant Symlog flows westerly through the site before joining the Nant Erfyn at Pen-bont Rhydybeddau, forming the Nant Silo. The Nant Silo continues westerly to join the Afon Stewi at Penrhyn-coch, forming the Afon Clarach. Cwmsymlog is one of the most important mines in Mid-Wales having been one of the key silver-producers of the area, along with the nearby Daren, Cwmerfyn, Bwlch and Goginan mines. The date of the first workings at Cwmsymlog are uncertain, but there are historic records dating back to the 16th century. The greatest period of activity began in the 1620s under Sir Hugh Myddleton, from which time the mine was in almost continuous operation until its closure in 1901. Much of the site is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to its considerable importance for rare species of lichen and fern. There are also two areas that have been designated as Scheduled Ancient Monuments (SAM), and in 2007 the 1855 Cornish Chimney was restored by the Spirit of the Miners project. In the late 1970s concerns were raised regarding the impact of wind-blown particles from the extensive tailings tips on local people and livestock. Investigations found a marked movement of lead-rich dust nearly 2km westwards from the mine. In order to counter these problems the large tailings tips adjacent to the Nant Symlog were reclaimed by Ceredigion District Council and the Welsh Office in 1981.
