Sensitivity of selected habitats Search the MarESA database for the sensitivities of specified habitats (biotopes). Use this tool to compare the sensitivity of one or more habitats (biotopes).
Please select one or more habitats from the list provided. Alternatively type keywords (e.g. species name, habitat name). Click the box to add further habitats. Then chose the level(s) of 'sensitivity' of interest and run the report. Select or deselect habitats (biotopes) and sensitivities as required and re-run the report. Note the results of the report can be exported in different formats on request . Mobile users should note this tool works best landscape.
