Summary: Peterborough City Council is seeking a consultant to assess the feasibility of developing a nominated cemetery site and search for alternatives in the Peterborough area. The work has two required strands: a detailed assessment of the nominated site’s ground conditions, water conditions, planning position and deliverability; and a documented search, screening and comparison of alternative sites for future burial needs. The consultant must identify constraints, estimate the usable burial land and recommend further investigations, then produce a longlist, shortlist and comparative options appraisal of alternatives.

Understanding the environmental impacts of displacing UK agricultural/commodity production

Description: There is increasing pressure on land use in the UK due to demands from housing development and commitments to Net Zero and nature. This, combined with a changing climate, mean there may be less land available for agricultural commodity production within the UK. This may result in a displacement of production overseas. While there is good evidence on the carbon, biodiversity and other environmental impacts that any given land use change will bring in situ, there is currently no established method of identifying 1) where crops are likely to be grown instead and 2) what impacts this displaced crop growth may have. A way to estimate these could provide evidence that would help guide land use decisions and policy by providing a holistic understanding of both the domestic (read more...)

Summary: JNCC Support Co is seeking environmental research services to develop an initial model of how UK agricultural and commodity production could be displaced overseas when land is no longer available for production. The work is intended to estimate where affected crops might instead be grown and assess the environmental impacts in those locations, including impacts that could align with the Global Environmental Impacts of Consumption indicator. The model should use clear and transparent assumptions and support a fuller understanding of the domestic and international consequences of land-use decisions. The procurement is for one lot of environmental services. The buyer is based in Peterborough; no delivery location is stated, and the work concerns UK land use and overseas production impacts.

Feasibility assessment of bioclimate vulnerability approaches for priority marine migratory species in the Caribbean and Pacific UK Overseas Territories

Description: Project Aims To assess the feasibility of applying bioclimate vulnerability assessment approaches to priority marine migratory species within the Caribbean UK Overseas Territories and the Pitcairn Islands. Building on previous work undertaken for JNCC, the study will evaluate the suitability of the proposed bioclimate vulnerability approach, consider relevant alternative approaches where appropriate, and determine whether sufficient evidence, data and expertise exist to support future implementation. 4. Project Background Climate change is increasingly affecting marine migratory species through changes in sea temperature, ocean productivity, habitat availability, ocean circulation patterns, species interactions and the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events (IPCC, 2022; Martay et al., 2023). These pressures may alter species distributions, abundance, migration routes and ecological relationships, with potentially significant consequences for biodiversity, ecosystem services and economies across (read more...)

Summary: JNCC Support Co is seeking research and consultancy services to assess whether bioclimate vulnerability methods can be applied to priority marine migratory species in the Caribbean UK Overseas Territories and the Pitcairn Islands. The work will evaluate the proposed method, consider a limited number of relevant alternatives, review available biological, ecological, environmental and climate data, and identify evidence gaps and constraints. It should establish what analyses current information can support and recommend an approach and roadmap for future assessment. The purpose is to inform climate adaptation, marine conservation and environmental decisions. Delivery covers Anguilla, the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, Montserrat, the Turks and Caicos Islands and the Pitcairn Islands.

Survey of potential Western Channel MPA control sites

Description: Project Aims: To deliver an offshore survey, the survey will provide information to support JNCC in planning a future effectiveness of measures (EoM) survey at Western Channel Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ). The subsequent effectiveness of measures survey will aim to monitor environmental changes at the site, should proposed fisheries management measures come into effect. To meet the overall aims of this project, the project objectives are: Objective 1 - Acquisition and interpretation of multibeam bathymetry and backscatter (control site identification) Objective 2 - Ground truthing and habitat characterisation Objective 3 - Repeat bathymetry survey for geomorphological change detection (costed option) Objective 4 - Compile a final report

Summary: JNCC Support Co commissioned an offshore environmental survey to identify potential control sites for monitoring the Western Channel Marine Conservation Zone. The work is intended to inform planning for a future effectiveness-of-measures survey, should proposed fisheries management measures take effect. It covers acquisition and interpretation of multibeam bathymetry and backscatter to identify control sites, ground-truthing and habitat characterisation, a costed option for repeat bathymetry to detect geomorphological change, and a final report. The procurement is for environmental services, delivered offshore in the United Kingdom. The requirement is a specialist marine survey rather than general environmental consultancy: suppliers need to be able to collect and interpret seabed data, characterise habitats and report findings that support monitoring and management planning.
