What guidance is available for seagrass restoration?

NatureScot has developed a Scotland seagrass restoration handbook and guidance document in collaboration with Marine Scotland and Project Seagrass. To ensure projects are evidence-led this document provides background information, regulatory considerations and monitoring/research guidance. The project report (Chambers et al., 2022) associated with this guidance document provides a substantial amount of further guidance on seagrass enhancement and experience from case studies.

The current key guidance documents of relevance to enhancement in Scotland are listed in the checklist – tick items that your group should explore in more detail to create your own tailored worklist.
