QUALITY:
This site was originally designated in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK) for qualifying habitats listed on Annex I of European Council Directive 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora, known as the Habitats Directive. The Annex I habitats listed in field 3.1 of the Standard Data Form at this site have been matched with habitats listed on Resolution No. 4 (1996) of the Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats (Bern Convention), but the correspondence between Annex I habitats and Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats do not always correspond exactly. In some cases, only a partial translation was possible.The UK does not have information on the extent of Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats either on SACs or more generally. As a result of splitting an Annex I habitat to more than one Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat it is not possible to recalculate a ‘true’ Representativity score.The following Annex I habitats were partially merged into a Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat. In effect, at least one of the Annex I features is split, and the part of the split is merged with the translation of another Annex I feature: Annex I habitats 1110 Sandbanks which are slightly covered by sea water all the time and 1170 Reefs were merged into Resolution No.4 (1996) habitat A5 Sublittoral sediment. This means the relationship between these Annex I and Resolution No. 4 (1996) features is very complex. It was not possible to divide the area of the Annex I habitats between the Resolution No. 4 (1996) EUNIS habitats to which the Annex I habitats have been translated.  Sandbanks which are slightly covered by sea water all the time for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom.  Reefs for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom.

OTHERCHARACT:
General site characteristics: The Shell Flat component of the Shell Flat and Lune Deep SAC is a crescent shaped sandbank comprising a range of mud and sand sediments. Shell Flat has a  typical sandy substrate biological community. Shell Flat is the only sandbank feature identified within the outer Shell Flat site and is known to provide important habitat for commercial fish species and bird populations.Lune Deep and the area immediately to the north support mixed faunal turf communities over a cobble/rock substrate. These areas provide habitat for erect hydroids and bryozoans with some areas having erect sponges which form the biotope Flustra foliacea and Haliclona oculata with a rich faunal turf on tide-swept circalittoral mixed substrata. The reef habitat present in the area represents a good example of boulder and bedrock reef, with the largest proportions of rock found along the unique kettle hole feature known as Lune Deep.  The northern edges of Lune Deep are characterised by heavily silted cobble and boulder slopes, subject to strong tidal currents with a dense hydroid and bryozoan turf.  This unique enclosed deep hole provides a contrasting habitat to the surrounding muddy communities of the Eastern Irish Mudbelt.  Data from a 2004 survey show that the northern flanks of Lune Deep are composed of exposed bedrock with a rugged seabed physiography. In contrast, the southern flank consists of a smooth seabed which is a sink for muddy sands.

General site characteristics: The Studland to Portland SAC lies off the south coast of the county of Dorset in England. The site comprises a mosaic of two areas containing Annex I reef habitat. The areas are described as (from east to west):Studland Bay to Ringstead Bay Reefs;Portland Reefs Studland Bay to Ringstead Bay Reefs.Numerous areas of reef (in many forms) exist within the Studland Bay to Ringstead Bay marea. The reefs exhibit a large amount of geological variety, ranging from exposed chalk bedrock east of Ringstead Bay, through to exposed shales and clays, limestone and cementstone ledges, and boulders around Kimmeridge to Durlston, and back to exposed chalk bedrock between Ballard Cliffs and Handfast Point in the east of the site. A number of features of particular interest are present within this area including:A series of limestone ledges (up to 15m across) protruding from a shelly gravel in Worbarrow Bay; St Albans ledge, which is a unique reef feature extending out over 10km offshore. The feature is subject to strong tidal action, which has scoured holes down to 60m in some areas;An area of large limestone blocks known as the `seabed caves` located east of St Albans ledge;Evans Rock, which is a gently sloping mound in the outer limits of Swanage Bay. The mound has a flat top covered with small, slab-like boulders and cobbles, separated by small areas of shelly sand.Portland ReefsThe Portland Reefs area lies off the south, east and west coasts of Portland Bill and is characterised by flat bedrock, limestone ledges (Portland stone), large boulders and cobbles. Diver surveys in the western side of Portland Bill have recorded rugged limestone boulders providing deep gullies and overhangs. These occur where the coastal cliffs extend underwater and are clearly visible as 20m drop offs. Mytilus edulis beds are found to occur in very high densities on bedrock associated with strong currents off Portland Bill.

DOCUMENTATION:
For information on this site, including the Selection Assessment Document, Conservation Objectives and Advice on Activities document, as well as information about the identification process of the UK network of harbour porpoise SACs, see the Site Information Centre (see link) for this site. The population size estimate in Section 3.2, provided at the time the site was proposed as an SCI, is based on data from a survey conducted in 2005 (Hammond et al. 2013). Revised “population in the site” estimates based on the 2016 survey (Hammond et al. 2017) are a minimum of 224 (lower 95% CI) and maximum of 656 (higher 95% CI). All these estimates are derived from one-month summer surveys and should not be considered as specific population sizes for the site. Hammond, P. Macleod, K. Berggren, P. Borchers, D. Burt, L.

QUALITY:
Qualifies under Recommendation 16 (1989) paragraph 1 and/or listed on Resolution No. 6 (1998). As a result of the translation of data from the Natura 2000 database to the Emerald Network database it has been necessary to move some species features from field 3.2 to field 3.3 of the Standard Data Form.  This is because regularly occurring migratory species and assemblages are not all listed on Resolution No. 6 (1998) of the Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats (Bern Convention).   Qualifies under Recommendation 16.1.e: The site regularly supports more than 1% of the biogeographical population of four regularly occurring migratory species; black-legged kittiwake Rissa tridactyla (89,040 breeding adults, 2008-2011, 2% North Atlantic), northern gannet Morus bassanus (16,938 breeding adults, 2008-2012, 2.6% North Atlantic), common guillemot Uria aalge albionis (83,214 breeding adults 2008-2011, 15.6%) and razorbill Alca torda islandica (21,140 breeding adults, 2008-2011, 2.3%). The site regularly supports an assemblage of more than 20,000 individual breeding seabirds (average number of individuals: 216,730, 2008-2012), including over 2,000 individual northern fulmar Fulmarus glacialis.
