<p>he St. Magnus Bay (SMB) model is an implementation of the Finite Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM) and has a domain focused on St. Magnus Bay on the west coast of Shetland. The model grid is unstructured with the highest horizontal resolution as small as 15 – 20 m between nodes in Row Sound be...

<p>Scottish Marine and Freshwater Science Vol 5 No 9</p> <p>By 2020 the percentage of Scotland's energy coming from renewable sources will increase. Studies have identified that there is a need to research how offshore renewable developments affect wildlife populations. The surveys presented here wi...

<p>Scottish Marine and Freshwater Science Vol 5 No 12</p> <p>The established modelling approach to estimating collision risk employed in environmental assessment of wind farms (the Band model) was developed by Band in 2000, updated in 2007 and has since been updated for use in the marine environment...

<p>We followed the method of Häkkinen and Rhines (2004) to calculate the Sub-Polar Gyre Index, which has been defined as the first Principal Component (PC1) of an Empirical Orthogonal Function Analysis (EOFA) of the sea level anomaly field in the North Atlantic.<br /> Please note that new versions o...

<p>The MSS deepwater trawl survey is a time series from the continental slope of the Rockall Trough, NE Atlantic. The survey covers depths between 300-2067m. The survey began in 1998 and has taken place each year except 1999, 2001, 2003, and 2010. The bottom trawl samples the demersal fish living on...
