Assessing trends in irregular Tw data: 'structural biases in the time-of-day of sampling, such as always sampling in the morning, or where the start & end of the record are sampled at different times of day, could make estimates highly inaccurate ...' sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Nice review of this attempted reintroduction campaign.

60 yrs of Atlantic salmon data Northern Rivers Institute (NRI) Iain Malcolm - crucial to assess global change implications on ecology

We have been monitoring the Girnock Burn in Aberdeenshire since 1966.

This interdisciplinary collaborative work – with partners including Northern Rivers Institute (NRI) - has created uniquely detailed datasets which support our understanding of Atlantic salmon populations and their habitats.

The National Electrofishing Programme for Scotland plays a crucial role in assessing the status of wild Atlantic salmon. It’s funded by Scot Gov Marine and delivered by Fisheries Management Scotland members British Science Week #BSW24

Even with fish passes barriers can still be a major pressure on migratory fish: 'Dams with fishways can still be among the most negatively impacting barriers if they are located in the migration route of fish into a large part of the basin' mdpi.com/2410-3888/9/4/…

River hypoxia is likely to become a greater problem under climate change (& exacerbated by high nutrients & low shade): 'we showed that hypoxia is most likely to occur in small, low slope streams, under high temperature and low discharge conditions' sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
