Description

• Comparison of the revised ICG-C list of pressures and benchmarks supplied to the contractor with existing MarLIN and MB102 pressures/benchmarks.
• Scoping of relevant pressures against the species, to streamline the assessment process.
• Compilation of existing evidence (MB0102/MarLIN) and sensitivity assessments for the species,
• Sensitivity assessment of the species, using the MarESA methodology (see Tyler-Walters et al. 2016) based on the readily available in house evidence base, to assess sensitivity at the benchmarks, using the MarESA methodology. This step will also include a review of the evidence base, using the NMBL library, Google Scholar and specialist journal abstracting services e.g. ASFA, Science Direct, among others. The evidence base supporting the sensitivity assessments will be presented on the MarLIN website, alongside the sensitivity assessment categories, resistance and resilience scores and confidence levels.
• Brief commentary if clarity is needed (e.g. where evidence conflicts).
