  • Stow Cum Quy Fen Pond Survey
    Stow Cum Quy Fen pond survey A report for the Freshwater Habitats Trust July 2017 (Version 2) 1. Introduction Stow-cum-Quy Fen Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) covers 29.6 hectares and is located 7.5 km north-east of the centre of Cambridge. It features a number of ponds, the largest being a coprolite pit from which phosphate-rich deposits were excavated in the mid to late 19th century for fertiliser (O’Connor, 2001 & 2011). Originally believed to be fossilised dinosaur dung, the ‘coprolite’ seams were in fact phosphatic nodules derived from the remains of marine molluscs, cephalopods and other organisms deposited during the Jurassic (Cambridgeshire Archaeology Field Group, 2015). The elongate shape of some smaller ponds suggests that these too originated as coprolite pits but others are likely to be stock watering ponds. This survey was commissioned by the Freshwater Habitats Trust as part of the Flagship Ponds project. Fieldwork for was undertaken by Jonathan Graham (botanical survey) and Martin Hammond (invertebrates) on 17th May 2017. This was followed by a second visit on 21st June 2017 to seek out additional species. 2. Survey methods Eight ponds (refer to location map below) were surveyed using PSYM (Predictive System for Multimetrics), the standard methodology for evaluating the ecological quality of ponds and small lakes (Environment Agency, 2002). A PSYM survey involves: Obtaining environmental data such as pond area, altitude, grid reference, substrate composition, cover of emergent vegetation, degree of shade, accessibility to livestock and water pH Collecting a sample of aquatic macro-invertebrates using a standard protocol (three minutes’ netting divided equally between each ‘meso-habitat’ within the pond basin, plus one minute searching the water surface and submerged debris) Recording wetland plants PSYM generates six ‘metrics’ (measurements) representing important indicators of ecological quality.

  • The Geology of the Wicken Vision Area, Lower Cam Valley, Cambridgeshire, UK
    Netherlands Journal of Geosciences — Geologie en Mijnbouw | 92 – 1 | 47-59 | 2013 The Geology of the Wicken Vision Area, lower Cam valley, Cambridgeshire, UK S. Boreham Quaternary Palaeoenvironments Group, Department of Geography, University of Cambridge, Downing Place, Cambridge CB2 3EN, United Kingdom Email: [email protected] Manuscript received: May 2011, accepted: September 2012 Abstract The geology of the Wicken Vision Area in the lower Cam valley is described with reference to a stacked series of ten cross-sections through Holocene and Pleistocene deposits, and Cretaceous/Jurassic bedrock across the region. A detailed cross-section through a Holocene palaeochannel, with radiocarbon dating and pollen analyses is also presented. The structural geology of the bedrock and the stratigraphic arrangement of the Pleistocene and Holocene deposits are used to describe landscape development for the area. This study offers a new understanding of the stratigraphy and context of the Holocene, Weichselian and earlier Pleistocene deposits of the lower Cam valley, and provides a unique view of sediment architecture in valley-fill sediments at the fen edge. Keywords: Holocene, Weichselian, Pleistocene, Cam valley, Wicken Vision Introduction simplistic description masks a wealth of geological complexity in the district. This paper aims to describe the lithostratigraphy and sediment The area included in this study stretches from North Fen, architecture of Holocene, Weichselian and earlier Pleistocene Upware and Wicken Fen in the north, to Reach, Swaffham deposits in the transitional area between the River Cam valley Bulbeck and Lode in the east, Fen Ditton to the south, and and southern Fenland by adding new geological observations Milton, Horningsea and Waterbeach to the west (Fig.

  • Local Government Boundary Commission - Review of Cambridgeshire County Council
    Local Government Boundary Commission - Review of Cambridgeshire County Council East Cambridgeshire - Conservative Party Response from South East Cambridgeshire Conservative Association (SECCA) Summary 1. We believe that single Member Divisions provide for the most effective local government in East Cambridgeshire, giving greater clarity to the electorate and to City, Town and Parish Councils and other local organisations. 2. Our preferred scenario (scenario 1) is based on 63 Members, meaning that 9 will be in East Cambridgeshire. This proposed scenario allows for provision of single Member Divisions, achieves good electoral equality, provides for convenient and effective local government and offers the best solution, by some margin, in terms of reflecting community interests and identity. 2.1. We strongly believe that the Boundary Commission’s proposal for two 2 Member Divisions (within the 61 Member scenario) has made serious compromises to both community interests and identity and to convenient and effective local government, markedly so for the proposed Littleport West Division (Division 16). The geographical size and marked difference in service needs of different parts of this Division could cause conflict in Members’ ability to represent the whole of the Division effectively. 2.2. Sutton, and particularly the villages to the south of Sutton (Wentworth, Witchford, Haddenham, Aldreth, Wilburton, Stretham and Little Thetford) are totally remote from Littleport - geographically (residents of those areas look to Ely and Cambridge and do not use or travel to Littleport), culturally (residents of those areas do not link themselves in any way to Littleport), demographically and in terms of service need (educational, economic and health and wellbeing needs are markedly different).
