1 hour in R is equivalent to 7 years of Earth time.

We caught this beautiful, huge Amazonian catfish in the River Kelvin in Glasgow, SCOTLAND, this morning. Please do not release your aquarium fish into local waterways! They can be very ecologically damaging! ClydeRiverFoundation @marinescotland Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) Amelia Munson

Our latest research on the role of behaviour traits on fishway passage performance in trout is now out! Check out the #openaccess paper here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…. #fishsci #trout #animalbehaviour Durham University Durham BioSciences Durham Uni Aquatic Animal Ecology Lab

Well I am excited to announce 2021 Derwent tracking project tagging has officially finished with 150 salmon smolts tagged! Let hope we get some interesting data this year! Env Agency NW Natural England Cumbria West Cumbria Rivers Trust SCENE

How do we go about fork length for this one? Amy Green Hannele Honkanen #Salmon #Derwent

44 acoustic receivers deployed in three days for the Derwent Tracking Project, lead by Amy Green! Looking forward to building on the work started last year! SCENE Environment Agency @vemcoteam #trackingnotslacking

Next up is Amy Green from SCENE University of Glasgow, presenting her work on the effect of river barriers on the success of the seaward Atlantic salmon smolt migration in Cumbria, UK! #nowpas2021

New paper from Danielle Orrell and Hannele Honkanen show that Atlantic salmon smolt migration in standing waters created by impoundment can be as slow as through natural lakes Matt Newton SCENE sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Are you curious about how scientists track animals under water? 🌊Ever wondered how #acoustic #telemetry works? 🧐 Why it's useful for the conservation and management of aquatic life? 🦈🐟 ETN has just released a beautiful animation for YOU! 🥳 Enjoy!! youtu.be/s10CnCZr3jE

A very interesting read ... have rogue orcas really been attacking boats in the Atlantic? BBC News (UK)

Can´t wait to see everyone soon online!

Added energy expenditure is one of the overlooked consequences of barriers!!! Less energy = decreased energy for migration & reproduction = decreased survival & fitness 🐟 #letitflow #removethatdam #freerivers #freshwatersneedlovetoo

Scotland's wild salmon stocks 'at lowest ever level' bbc.com/news/uk-scotla…

Migratory fish play a crucial role in healthy river systems.

With at least half of all the flow in the rivers of the world artificially manipulated or fragmented, our resource of truly wild free-flowing rivers is more threatened than ever. #WorldFishMigrationDay

Retrieved @vemcoteam ARs from Loch Lomond today with colleagues from SCENE. Excited to start assessing the behaviour of Atlantic salmon smolt movement through the Endrick catchment! SeaMonitor Atlantic Salmon Trust Loch Lomond Fisheries Trust Loughs Agency

Couldn’t have had a nicer morning helping out with receiver retrieval for Jessie Lilly SCENE @vemcoteam !!!
