Other marine economic sectors

The information provided in this report is based on available, validated economic data sources. As relevant data on other marine economy sectors become available we will add them to this report.

Recreational sea angling is not included separately in this publication. But, may be covered within other sectors, such as marine tourism or renting and leasing of water equipment.

Marine renewable energy (wind, wave and tidal) has continued to grow in Scotland. We are still working on calculating GVA for offshore wind and sourcing economic information for wave and tidal energy.

Seaweed harvesting is a potential addition to future reports, when data and appropriate methods have been developed.
