description

This study will assess the impacts of the pump scoop dredge fishery on the invertebrate communities of Poole Harbour, and how changes in prey availability may impact the designated bird features of the site.

This study will address evidence gaps which will inform future advice regarding the sustainability of the pump-scoop dredge fishery. Specific focus should be centred on the possible reductions in the abundance and variety of non-target benthic invertebrates, making the communities less diverse and having lower biomass, which is an issue in relation to SSSI condition, as well as in relation to understanding prey availability of protected bird features of the SPA.
