Habitat Mosaics Decoded: From UKHab to BNG Metric Compliance
Register for free
Habitat mosaics are common—but rarely straightforward.
Whether you’re baselining a brownfield, planning a complex suburban greenspace, or squelching through a floodplain, mosaics introduce complexity into BNG mapping and reporting.
The question is: how do you treat them correctly under both UKHab and BNG?

HOSTED BY
Dr Justin Byrne MCIEEM
In this expert-led webinar, Dr Justin Byrne MCIEEM, Senior Ecologist at AiDASH, shares a field-first guide to working with habitat mosaics in practice. From classification to metric scoring, you’ll learn how to apply consistent logic, avoid common pitfalls, and confidently interpret even the trickiest site types.
Dr Justin Byrne MCIEEM
Justin brings broad ecological expertise from academic, civil service, and commercial settings. His focus is on research and quality assurance, helping partners apply remote sensing, eDNA, and ecological modelling to real-world BNG challenges with rigour and clarity.
In this session, you’ll learn:
✅ What makes a habitat mosaic—and how to identify one in the field
✅ How UKHab and BNG differ when it comes to mosaics
✅ When to map mosaic constituents separately (and when not to)
✅ Real-world examples: vegetated gardens, suburban sites, floodplain wetlands, wood pasture, and more
✅ Practical advice on dividing and classifying mosaics for BNG reports
Who should attend:
Ecologists
conducting BNG baselines and condition assessments
Consultants
