Introduction & Summary
This year has seen a substantial further increase in overall marine survey activity following the pandemic affected years of 2019/20 and 2021/22. In total we carried out cetacean surveys on over 31000km of trackline in UK Coastal Waters, North Sea and Bay of Biscay. Additionally, we inaugurated seabird surveys for the European Seabird at Sea Programme in conjunction with the Joint Nature Conservation Committee. Our scientific data continues to be used by governments, universities, NGOs and other scientific bodies to monitor the condition of marine life in our seas. As an example of this, our monitoring of dolphin activity in the North East (North East Cetacean Project) has enabled a master’s student to identify a significant movement of Bluenose Dolphins from Scotland’s Moray Firth to the north east of England. You can read more about our survey activities in the enclosed MARINElife Science Report 2022-23
The survey programme is dependent on our team of staff, skilled volunteers and the generosity of the ferry companies who do so much to support us. Our thanks go out to all our volunteers and partners for another year of dedicated effort and generosity in time given up for this.
We also rely on individuals, corporates and other bodies for grants and donations to fund the surveys we undertake and very much appreciate the support we have received.
MARINElife training courses continue to be popular although we experienced low numbers for the one-day courses in the earlier part of the year, possibly due to Covid caution, but numbers increased as the year went on. we have run a full year’s programme of events with our partners:
Lincolnshire, Cumbria, Devon and Dorset Wildlife Trusts;
Dorset Diving Services;
SU MarineWatch of Exeter University, with a full weekend of ID and data training in October, to a ‘sold-out’ classroom and boat of eager students.
MARINElife also delivered another very successful 6-day residential workshop on Lundy Island; this workshop covers marine megafauna and Lundy wildlife. See more on our training and education activities in the enclosed MARINElife Training Report 2022-23
We have several people changes to report:
We welcome Rebecca Macdonald-Lofts, Georgina Fuller and Olivia McLaughlin as Trustees.
We thank Carol Farmer-Wright for her service as Routes Manager, wishing her a happy retirement, and welcome Rob Petley-Jones as her successor in this role.
Thanks also to Helen Swift who has retired as our volunteer Board Secretary

Ships of Opportunity (ShOp) Survey Programmes
There was a substantial recovery in survey activity from the pandemic affected years of 2019/20 and especially 2021/22, with 16 ShOp survey programmes underway in 2022/3 compared with seven in 2021/22. A total of 18,000 km of trackline was surveyed through 80 surveys on 112 days utilising 32 vessels, compared with 7,200 km of trackline on 64 days in 2021/22. All the surveys started from the UK, but also entered Danish, Dutch, French, German, Irish and Norwegian waters as well as the crown dependencies of Guernsey and Jersey.
There were 360 sightings of nine cetacean species. Common Dolphin was found to be widely distributed in waters off western Britain, whilst Harbour Porpoise was also found in the eastern Channel and southern North Sea. There was a scattering of White-beaked Dolphin in the central and northern North Sea and west of Orkney. Bottlenose Dolphins were mainly located in coastal waters, though an offshore population was picked up in the northern Bay of Biscay. Risso’s Dolphins were seen between Cornwall and Scilly, whilst Striped Dolphins were found in the northern Bay of Biscay. Of the whales, several sightings of Fin Whale in UK waters were especially noteworthy. Other marine mega-vertebrates recorded included Basking Shark, Ocean Sunfish, Blue-fin Tuna and a sizable number of Harbour and Grey Seal sightings.
There were nearly 20,000 bird sightings with over 80,000 individuals counted and 89 species detected on 14 of the 16 ShOp surveys (excluding small boat surveys, other than Balearic Shearwater which were recorded on South Coast surveys). The main species encountered were Manx Shearwater (17019 counted), Gannet (14564), Guillemot (9402), Kittiwake (6049) and Herring Gull (5741).
Monthly ferry surveys
MARINElife’s core programme of monthly ferry surveys, first established in 1995, increased substantially with the relaxation of Covid 19 restrictions, from a low of four routes in 2021/22 to 10 in 2022/23. The routes and total survey effort are given in the table below. There were 144 cetacean sightings of five species, with over half of the sightings being of Harbour Porpoise. The were 84 bird species seen on ferry surveys, with 11,465 sightings and over 55,000 birds counted.

MARINElife/JNCC Volunteer Seabirds at Sea Project (VSAS)
A new project was launched in 2022 to gradually introduce ‘gold standard’ European Seabird at Sea (ESAS) seabird recording on MARINElife ferry routes in England. The project is being done in conjunction with the UK Governments conservation advisory body the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC), who previously developed a successful pilot project in Scotland with assistance from MARINElife. Thanks to an exciting new partnership between the Isles of Scilly Travel Company and MARINElife the inaugural surveys began on the Penzance to Scilly ferry in April 2022. You can read about the surveys on this route here https://www.marine-life.org.uk/survey-
reports/categories/penzance-isles-of-scilly The aim is to establish ESAS surveys on three Volunteer Seabirds at Sea (VSAS) ferry routes during 2023/24.

North East Cetacean Project (NECP)
The NECP is a programme of small boat and land-based surveys and collation of public sightings led by Dr Martin Kitching, which aims to generate up-to-date information on the status of White-beaked Dolphin, Bottlenose Dolphin, and other cetaceans off the Northumberland coastline. The project has extended into Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Suffolk, and expanded to include the whole North Sea and its coastal areas, through the public sightings scheme. Only two at sea surveys were completed in 2022/23, though a large number of land-based observations were made or collated from the public. A masters project by Katie Hackett utilising the Bottlenose Dolphin photo Identification and sightings data was completed titled the “Movement and ecology of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) along the North East coast of the UK”. This showed that some of the long-established Moray Firth population are relocating from Scottish waters into waters off the coast of northeast England. Over the year, Natural England commissioned a development of the work looking at Bottlenose Dolphin trends in the region. The study confirmed the enormous increase in sightings rate in Bottlenose Dolphin, from being rarely seen prior to 2019 to accounting for around 80% of all cetacean sightings made from the north east coast by 2022. The report will be available in the coming months on the Natural England website.

South Coast Small Boat Surveys
A programme of small boat surveys has been carried out off south west England, especially in Lyme Bay since 2006 targeted at understanding the distribution, population size, movements, and habitat requirements of three threatened and protected species – Bottlenose Dolphin, White-beaked Dolphin and Balearic Shearwater. For example, in 2017 photo- identification images and data collected by MARINElife, AK Wildlife Cruises and Marine Discovery were analysed by MARINElife with a peer-reviewed paper published, highlighting the importance of south west England coastal waters to Bottlenose Dolphin. Consequently, Natural England designated the inshore coastal areas of south Devon and Cornwall as a ‘management unit’ for this species; meaning that the species needs have to be taken into account in relevant marine planning issues. More recently, researchers from Plymouth University completed a more wide-ranging analysis of Bottlenose Dolphin distribution and abundance using data supplied by MARINElife and others. The results have been submitted to a scientific journal and will hopefully be published soon.
Surveys continued in 2022/3, with 1212 km of trackline sampled on 16 days. The surveys confirmed the continued presence of a mother and calf Bottlenose Dolphin pair, originally from the Moray Firth, in Portland Harbour along with good numbers of Common Dolphin in Lyme Bay, though Harbour Porpoise sightings were down, and no White-beaked Dolphins were seen ‘on effort’. Once again, significant numbers of Balearic Shearwaters were seen in Lyme Bay, along with singles of Cory’s and Great Shearwater.
Around 500 globally critically endangered Balearic Shearwaters were recorded feeding in Lyme Bay during August, highlight the areas international importance for this species (Tom Brereton)

Research cruises with CEFAS
Peltic
The Peltic survey is led by the Government’s Fisheries Research Institute CEFAS and is a multidisciplinary survey of the Western Channel and Celtic Sea waters which runs for several weeks each autumn and is focussed on pelagic fish assessments. MARINElife has been surveying seabirds and cetaceans as part of the survey annually since 2013. The 2022 Peltic survey was restricted to just 12 days at sea from 17-28 October, with surveys on 10 of those days totalling 146km of trackline and yielding three cetacean and 36 bird species. This included two sightings of Fin Whale. The autumn was poor for the variety of cetaceans, though weather conditions were not conducive to spotting the less easily detected species. On the bird front the standout species was Great Shearwater, with 1169 birds logged, compared with none in 2021! Scavengers such as Great Skua were well down in numbers, most likely due to the severe impacts of bird flu. The downward trend in this species’ numbers is of major concern elsewhere too. Scotland, for example supports around 10,000 breeding pairs representing 60% of the world’s population, whilst the RSPB estimates 50% of these birds may have died due to bird flu.

Mackerel Egg Survey
In June MARINElife joined the CEFAS Mackerel egg survey, sailing from Lowestoft and sampling the whole of the central and northern North Sea over a 24-day period. This proved to be the most extensive survey of the year with 3176 km of trackline sampled. A total of 26 bird species were recorded on effort during the survey, including 17 species of seabird. A total of 1,526 sightings of 2,9067 birds were recorded. Two rare species were recorded, Yellow-legged Gull and Great Shearwater. There were five cetacean sightings, four of which were identified to species level including two White-beaked Dolphins and singles of Minke Whale and Bottlenose Dolphin. The complete lack of Harbour Porpoise sightings is likely to have been detectability issue, as for the majority of the time sea conditions were not conducive to spotting them. You can read the full story here. https://www.marine-life.org.uk/post/cefas-mackerel-egg-survey-4-24-june

Met Office Surveys
Marine weather buoys are vital for climate and weather models and real-time weather forecasting. The sensors on board measure the air and water, sending observations including temperatures for both wind speed and wave height to the Met Office every hour. Securely moored weather buoys, standing at 6 m tall and weighing over 4.5 tons are scattered across the European Atlantic and surrounding seas. Inevitably, given their exposed positions, they take a battering from the weather and need servicing every two years to make sure they are in good working order. If they need to be to be returned to port, a crane is needed to bring them onto the boat and back to a dock.
As part of the maintenance programme, MARINElife was invited to carry out two surveys each approximately a week in length, the first covering buoys in English, French and Irish waters (1250km in total), the second covering waters west and north Scotland, including around Shetland (891km in total).
Spy hopping Long-finned Pilot Whales in the Rockall Trough (Pete Howlett)
The surveys provide highly productive with over 100marine mammal sightings and eight cetacean species including Fin Whale, Long-finned Pilot Whale, Minke Whale, Striped Dolphin and Whitebeaked Dolphin. There were nearly 3000 bird sightings of 36 species, with ~10,000 birds counted. Species highlights included Sooty Shearwater, Leach’s Petrel, Cory’s Shearwater and Long-tailed Skua.

Policy and research uses of MARINElife data
MARINElife data is widely used in policy and research by Government agencies, NGOs and University researchers to inform conservation efforts and marine planning and to further our understanding of marine ecosystems. In addition to the projects and studies ongoing already described, MARINElife data forms a key dataset being used by the Crown Estate to develop sustainable offshore wind developments https://naturalengland.blog.gov.uk/2023/02/01/ poseidon-offshore-wind-and-nature/
Two peer-reviewed publications using MARINElife data have recently been published:

MARINElife Training Report 2022-23
Overview
MARINElife training courses continue to be popular, and we have had a full year’s programme. Initially we experienced low numbers for the one-day courses in the earlier part of the year, this was probably due to folk still feeling a little cautious due to residual Covid cases, but numbers began to increase as the year went on. Course included:
- partnering once again with the local wildlife trusts to maximise the audience reach. These included Lincolnshire, Cumbria, Devon, and Dorset Wildlife Trusts.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of MARINElife
I report on the accounts for the year ended 5 April 2023 set out on pages four to twelve.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view ' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Sections 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of Sections 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of MARINElife
I report on the accounts for the year ended 5 April 2023 set out on pages four to twelve.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view ' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Sections 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of Sections 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
