Upper Teesdale SSSI Condition Assessment of the Vascular Plant Assemblage | UKGovscan
Aim: The survey must provide an updated CSM condition assessment of the Vascular Plant Assemblage across Upper Teesdale SSSI
Objectives
Confirm presence or absence across all units with historic records where no current (2023+) data exists.
Professional judgement should be applied to interpret the relevant direct population attributes and provide an overall assessment of population viability within each unit.
Assess the suitability of the supporting habitat for each population, using ecological judgement and relevant indirect attributes to evaluate how well current conditions meet the species' requirements.
Provide a unit level summary describing the status of each species and a judgement on its current trajectory (e.g., increasing, stable, declining, lost).
Address evidence gaps to support maintaining the required VPA assemblage score (current score is 2500; target is 2700)
Record details of any 'pressures' observed at the site which may impact on the condition of the designated species.
Suggest where current management is working and, where it is not, why that might that be.
Provide comments and recommendations for improving or updating the monitoring specification
