Researchers at the University of Oxford are conducting a survey to determine attitudes towards marine wildlife growing on historic maritime structures by those responsible for their management. The short survey should take 10 minutes to complete and can be accessed at: https://oxford.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/managing-marine-wildlife-on-historic-maritime-structures

As the survey is closing soon, we are extremely interested in hearing from anyone directly or indirectly involved in the management, maintenance or repair of historic maritime infrastructure (harbours, ports, breakwaters etc.). So far, over 130 port authorities, harbours and coastal engineers have contributed to this research from across the UK.
The results of the survey will be used to identify practical solutions towards the conservation of historic maritime infrastructure and marine biodiversity. Participants will have access to the outputs of this valuable research on the completion of the study.
Any information you provide will be completely anonymous and will remain confidential. If you have any questions please contact the primary researcher, Tim Baxter ([email protected]).
Thank you in advance for your help and participation!
