What do existing data and evidence sets tell us about the condition of ancient woodland in Wales?
Summary of the Research Question / Evidence Need:
Ancient woodlands are some of our most valuable and biologically diverse. More information on their condition of both statutory and non-statutory woodlands would help inform future policy and management options.
Keywords (discipline, other): Woodland

What evidence is needed to ensure the effective conservation of semi-natural grassland species?
Summary of the Research Question / Evidence Need:
Diversity is a basic measure of sustainable management of natural resources. Some species require specific management for populations to be stable or expand, but there are gaps in knowledge for some species

What has changed in the extent and distribution of semi-natural grassland since the Phase 1 habitat survey of late last century?
Summary of the Research Question / Evidence Need:
Stocks of natural resources is a basic measure of sustainable management of natural resources. The Phase 1 Habitat survey is old and remote sensing is mostly poor as recording grassland extent

What impact does introduced hard substrate (turbines, mattresses, rock dump) have on the biological and ecological structure and functioning of designated sediment habitats in Marine Protected Areas (MPAs)?
Summary of the Research Question / Evidence Need:
The introduction of hard substrate to sedimentary benthic habitats has the potential to change their ecological characteristics and biological composition. A better understanding is needed of the tipping points that lead to changes to community structure and function.
Next steps and progress: This has been discussed by various groups working on offshore wind evidence. Work could include an evidence review, analysis of monitoring data from industry and research.
Keywords (discipline, other): marine science, hard substrate, turbines, mattresses, rock dump, biological and ecological structure, designated sediment habitats, Marine Protected Areas, ecological characteristics, biological composition, tipping-point, data
