Conservation Areas & Species
A large pile of rope/lash in the area. Clast and matrix supported boulders arise from the seabed about 2m. Abundant bryozoans grows on the boulders. The majority of the fauna in thearea are connected to the hard substrate. At some locations, the pile of blocks appears to be several metres high. A lot of different fishes, crabs and lobsters are associated to this reef.
This is a medium graded stony reef.

Muddy sand with ripples and small fragments of Sabellaria spinulosa . The fragments are scattered and gives a sparse impression. Aggregations of S. spinulosa are scattered in this area continuously. They show relatively high biological activity, different species of flatfish, ascidians and hydrozoans.
The elevation varies up as does the density. The S. spinulosa aggregations seems too have a silty layer covering them.

Conservation Areas & Species
Patches of Sabellaria spinulosa aggregations covered occasionally with silt. The surface of the seabed in between the aggregations appear to be a mix of sand and silt. Epifaunal activity, of cnidarians and arthropods, can be observed on and in the S. spinulosa made structures. These are variable in size and elevation but also in spacing giving a sparse impression in some places but are common throughout the video. Flatfish, arthropods, and echinoderms are observed around the aggregations. The coverage
varies between <5% up to 20% with an extent >25m2. Some of the aggregations look abraded with close to none elevation from the seabed surface with a spacing of 10 - 50 cm. The aggregations that show a clear elevation from seabed surface, up to 10cm,
appear to be in good condition with clear tube structures.

Aggregations of Sabellaria spinulosa occasionally covered with sediment. The sediment appears to be a mix of sand and silt. The coverage of S. spinulosa varies between 1% up to 34%. Most of the aggregations show a clear elevation from seabed surface, up to 15 cm with clear tube structures. The spacing and elevation gives an impression of a reef that is common throughout the video.
Different Hydrozoa covers the aggregations and species of flatfish, arthropods, and echinoderms are observed around the aggregations.

Fine sandy silt with Sabellaria spinulosa aggregations evenly scattered over the seafloor. These are commonly colonised by hydrozoans. The aggregations cover approximately 0% to 10% of the seafloor. The elevations is generally slightly above the seafloor (~1 dm) and are in the size of
cobbles. The aggregations are seemingly "fresh" and alive, with clear tubes commonly visible.

Silty sand with sparse epifauna and small ripple formations. A rare presence of S. spinulosa aggregations, generally only a few centimetres in diameter, can be

Hydrozoa, caridea and flatfish are the occurring epifauna.

This site is very similar to S21 in composition with silty sand and sparse epifauna. There is a rare presence of S. spinulosa aggregations which is generally only a few centimetres in
diameter. It reflects a poor condition, the structures look abraded and there is sedimentation covering the aggregations, with almost no elevation. A few of the formations show a clear elevation from the seabed surface but the patchiness is generally <5% and the elevation is
only a few centimetres. Hydrozoa, caridea and some flatfish are the occurring epifauna. Polycheta, Hyalinoecia tubicola is frequently occurring on the seabed surface.

Silty sand and sparse epifauna with a scattered presence of S. spinulosa aggregations, which are generally only a few centimetres in diameter. It reflects a poor condition, the structures look abraded and there is sedimentation covering theaggregations, with almost no elevation. However there are also formations that show a clear elevation from the seabed surface with a notable epifaunal activity. The reef is inhabited by arthropods, actinaria, hydroza and flatfish. The reef is surrounded by scattered aggregations that are much smaller. Between the tube aggregations are clean silty sand with
almost no epifauna with small shell fragments.

Conservation Areas & Species
The sediment is almost entirely made out of S. spinulosa gravel or buried S. spinulosa aggregations. The S. spinulosa tubes are generally forming a reef in this area, with coverage of between 10% to up to 75%. The S. spinulosa reef is elevating significantly from the seafloor in some places (>1dm), while it is somewhat elevated
in others (<1dm). The reef is "worn", but also very variable in its quality. The diversity is significantly higher here than on flat sandy bottoms. A transect was extended from the sample point. In the extended area the S. spinulosa subsides with a significantly lower coverage 0 % - 5 %, but there are still patches with coherent S.
spinulosa aggregations, the cover are locally 50% in an approximately 10m2-square.

Silty sand, ripples, with sparse epifauna. There is a rare presence of scattered S. spinulosa aggregations which are only a few centimetres in diameter. The elevation varies from 1 and up to 5 centimetres. Tubularia indivisa can be observed growing on these aggregations. A few of the aggregations, more than 5 centimetres in diameters, show a clear elevation from the seabed surface but
the density of the aggregated patches is less than 5%. Hydrozoa, caridea and some flatfish are the occurring epifauna.

The sediment consists of sand and clay mixed with small shell fragments. Tubes of S. spinulosa are present throughout the seafloor. Different hydrozoa and crustaceans are connected to the tube aggregations. In the surrounding soft
sediment, holes from burrowing infauna are seen. The S. spinulosa tube aggregations covers up to 20% of the sea floor, and elevates at least 10 cm in some areas. Bits and pieces of aggregations are also seen scattered in the surrounding
sediment.

Sabellaria spinulosa on stable circalittoral mixed sediment
Muddy sand with ripples and small fragments of Sabellaria spinulosa . The fragments are scattered and giving an sparse impression. Aggregations of Sabellaria spinulosa are scattered in this area continuously. They show relativley high biological activity, different species of flatfish, ascidians and hydrozoans. The elevation
varies up as does the density. The Sabellaria aggreagtions look too have a silty layer covering them.
