  • Dorset Seasearch: Annual Summary Report 2017
    Dorset Seasearch: Annual Summary Report 2017 The 2017 diving season was another busy one for Dorset Seasearch with ten days of Seasearch diving as well as three Seasearch Observer courses. Five diving days were lost to bad weather conditions: four week day Seasearch friendly dives from West Bay and one day of the Lyme Bay weekend in October. Altogether 52 divers took part in dives organised by Dorset Seasearch in 2017. The Dives Lyme Regis with Rob King on Blue Turtle. Four dives were achieved over a breezy weekend in June all within the zone covered by the Statutory Instrument (SI) for Lyme Bay which prohibits the use of mobile fishing gear within the area. Both days were sunny with a south-westerly swell running, just perceptible at diving depth and an increasingly strong breeze in the Sunday. Visibility in-water was good and diving conditions whilst in-water were pleasant. The first dive target was a boulder reef 9km southeast of Lyme Regis near the southern edge of the area closed to bottom towed gear (Lyme Bay SI) on a known chalk outcrop. The site had a diverse epifauna including Pink Sea Fans (Eunicella verrucosa) and a range of sponges, bryozoa and sea squirts. The second dive targeted a site a bit further inshore which revealed low-lying bedrock ledges separated by flat bedrock with a mobile sediment veneer of sand and gravel composed of stone and shell. Again a diverse fauna was reported with Eunicella verrucosa represented by a range of different aged colonies as well as the nationally scarce branching sponge Adreus fascicularis.

The Marine Biological Association (MBA) is a Learned Society established in 1884. The MBA has about 1000 members and runs The Laboratory in Plymouth where 60 staff work. MBA members have been at the forefront of providing scientific information to support marine environment protection, management and education and much of the scientific information that underpins decision-making about environmental protection has come from work undertaken at the Laboratory. 2. The MBA is a founder member of the Plymouth Marine Sciences Partnership, a federation of seven partners based in Plymouth all of whom tackle different aspects of marine science and technology research and training in a complementary way. General Comment on application. 3. This is a well constructed document with much in favour of the application, including general government agency support for this type of development. 4. We note that the locations have been determined in discussion with Natural England and therefore assume that appropriate searches of available data on seabed biotopes and species present have been taken into account and that none in the proposed locations are of particular marine natural heritage importance.

MCA 2: Lyme Bay (East) Overall cShnaarpaschteort Key Characteristics Description Visual Resource Mapping Location and boundaries This Marine Character Area (MCA) stretches from Branscombe in the west to the beginning of the causeway linking Weymouth with the Isle of Portland to the south-east. The western boundary marks the transition from Cretaceous chalk and limestone (exposed at Beer Head) to the characteristic Triassic red sandstone associated with the coastline around Sidmouth (MCA 1). This transition is broadly followed offshore, extending to a maximum distance of approximately 36 kilometres (19 nautical miles) from the coast and bathymetry of 57 metres. The offshore boundary is largely consistent with the limits of the inshore marine plan area, also following the 50 metre contour line in parts (shown on the Admiralty Charts) to capture the full extent of waters associated with the Bay. The eastern MCA boundary marks the transition to seas influenced by the strong tides of the Portland Race (MCA 3). Please note that the MCA boundaries represent broad zones of transition (not immediate breaks in character). Natural, visual, cultural and socio- economic relationships between adjacent MCAs play a key role in shaping overall character. Therefore individual MCAs should not be considered in isolation. This MCA is particularly related to MCA 1 (Lyme Bay (West)); together providing a description of the expansive bay as a whole.

  • Spatial Variability of the Purbeck-Wight Fault Zone - a Long-Lived Tectonic Element in the Southern UK
    *Manuscript Click here to view linked References Spatial variability of the Purbeck-Wight Fault Zone - a long-lived tectonic element in the southern UK. 1Westhead, R.K, 1McCarthy, D., 2Collier, J. S. and 3Sanderson, D.J. 1British Geological Survey, The Lyell Centre, Research Avenue South, Edinburgh, EH14 4AP, UK. [email protected] (Corresponding author) 2Department of Earth Science and Engineering, Imperial College London, RSM Building, Prince Consort Road, London, SW7 2BP, UK. 3Faculty of Engineering and the Environment, University of Southampton, Southampton, SO17 1BJ, UK. Keywords: Inversion, tectonics, Alpine, Purbeck, Weymouth, Lyme Abstract New seamless onshore to offshore bedrock (1:10k scale) mapping for the Lyme Bay area is used to resolve the westward termination of the Purbeck-Wight Fault Zone (PWFZ) structure, comprising one of the most prominent, long-lived (Variscan-Cimmerian-Alpine) structural lineaments in the southern UK. The study area lies south of the Variscan Frontal Thrust and overlays the basement Variscide Rhenohercynian Zone, in a region of dominant E-W tectonic fabric and a secondary conjugate NW-SE/NE-SW fabric. The PWFZ comprises one of the E-W major structures, with a typical history including Permian to early Cretaceous growth movement (relating to basement Variscan Thrust reactivation) followed by significant Alpine (Helvetic) inversion. Previous interpretations of the PWFZ have been limited by the low resolution (1:250k scale) of the available offshore BGS mapping, and our study fills this gap. We describe a significant change in structural style of the fault zone from east to west. In the Weymouth Bay area, previous studies demonstrate the development of focussed strain associated with the PWFZ, accompanied by distributed strain, N-S fault development, and potential basement uplift in its hangingwall.

  • World Heritage Nomination – Iucn Technical Evaluation Dorset and East Devon Coast (United Kingdom)
    WORLD HERITAGE NOMINATION – IUCN TECHNICAL EVALUATION DORSET AND EAST DEVON COAST (UNITED KINGDOM) 1. DOCUMENTATION i) WCMC Data sheet: (19 references) ii) Additional literature consulted: Goudie, A. and Brunsden, D. 1997. Classic Landforms of the East Dorset Coast. The Geographical Association, Sheffield; and Ellis, N.V et al. (Eds.). 1996. An Introduction to the Geological Conservation Review. Joint Nature Conservation Committee, Peterborough. iii) Consultations: 2 external reviewers contacted; relevant officials from government, protected area agencies, and public institutions; private estate owners; geological associations; tourist operators; and other interest groups. iv) Field visit: February-March, 2001. Paul Dingwall, 2. SUMMARY OF NATURAL VALUES Located on the south coast of Britain, the nominated property comprises eight sections along 155km of largely undeveloped coast and countryside between Orcombe Rocks, near Exmouth in east Devon in the west, and Studland Bay, Dorset, in the east. The total area of the site is 2,550ha, 80% of which is cliffed coastline. The property has a combination of internationally renowned geological features considered by both palaeontologists and geomorphologists to be one of the most significant research sites for their respective fields of study in the world. The nominated site includes a near-continuous sequence of Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous rock exposures, representing almost the entire Mesozoic Era (between 251 and 66 million years ago), or approximately 185 million years of Earth history. The Triassic succession of mudstones and sandstones is over 1,100m thick, representing 50 million years of deposition. The sequence of Jurassic strata exposed between Lyme Regis and Swanage is among the best sections of marine Jurassic-age rocks to be found anywhere in the world.
