Species point records from 1991 Calf Marine Trust/MNCR Calf of Man survey

This survey was carried out as part of the Marine Nature Conservation Review (MNCR). The MNCR was started in 1987 by the Nature Conservancy Council and subsequent to the Environment Protection Act 1990, was undertaken by JNCC on behalf of the conservation agencies up to its completion in 1998. The MNCR was initiated to provide a comprehensive baseline of information on marine habitats and species, to aid coastal zone and sea-use management and to contribute to the identification of areas of marine natural heritage importance throughout Great Britain. Data collected through the MNCR was stored in the Marine Recorder database, and has been extracted from Marine Recorder to produce this dataset. For more details, see http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/page-1596. Records currently considered sensitive have been removed from this dataset.本调查作为海洋自然保护评估（Marine Nature Conservation Review，MNCR）的一部分开展。该评估于1987年由英国自然保护委员会（Nature Conservancy Council）发起，1990年《环境保护法案》颁布后，由联合自然保护委员会（Joint Nature Conservation Committee，JNCC）代表各保护机构承接此项工作，直至1998年正式完成。开展MNCR的初衷是构建覆盖海洋栖息地与物种的全面基础信息基线，以辅助海岸带及海洋利用管理，并协助识别大不列颠境内具有海洋自然遗产重要性的区域。通过MNCR采集的数据均存储于海洋记录器（Marine Recorder）数据库中，本数据集正是从该数据库中提取得到。如需了解更多详情，请访问http://jncc.defra.gov.uk/page-1596。当前被认定为敏感的记录已从本数据集中移除。
