  • LANDSCAPE/SEASCAPE A3c.1 INTRODUCTION
    Offshore Energy SEA APPENDIX 3c – LANDSCAPE/SEASCAPE A3c.1 INTRODUCTION Seascape is defined as ‘a discrete area within which there is shared inter-visibility between land and sea’, which can be separated into areas of sea, land and intervening coastline (DTI 2005). The study of seascape is not only concerned with the physical changes in a given view but the interaction of that view with individuals and how it affects overall visual amenity. Seascapes and coastal environments (including the sea itself) are extensively used for recreation which generates significant tourist income from which many coastal communities are dependent, and this can strongly conflict with commercial and industrial activity (Hill et al. 2001). Experience from terrestrial wind developments highlights that visual issues are often the largest source of public objection (DTI 2005). Assessments of the seascape resource attempt to gauge the capacity or sensitivity of an area to absorb a given development scenario based on a number of interacting factors – see the guidance in Hill et al. (2001), DTI (2005) and Scott et al. (2005). A3c.1.1 UK Context The sensitivity of the landscape to visual influences of offshore developments may be gauged partly on the presence of designated sites protected for their natural and cultural aesthetics. The coastal fringe of each Regional Sea contains a range of designations which relate in whole or in part to the scenic character of that area and these are categorised in the sections which follow. In addition to these, Natural England has described 58 Joint Character Areas (JCAs) which are relevant to the coasts of Regional Seas 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6.
