.Angus Lothian finishes off our groups presentations @FishPassage2018 - discussing his research on sea, adult and juvenile brown trout phenotypes using a Larinier fishpass to pass low head weirs #fishsci

My first PhD manuscript has been accepted! Cyprinid passage performance and behaviour at a Low Cost Baffle easement. What a great way to start the weekend! Can't wait to see the finished proof #EcologicalEngineering Durham Uni Aquatic Animal Ecology Lab Durham BioSciences South East Rivers Trust Environment Agency #fishsci

Great work from our PhD student Angus Lothian in producing the labs latest paper! Passage performance and behaviour of wild and stocked cyprinids at a sloping weir with a Low Cost Baffle fishway. Check it out using the 50 day free access link below.

The results are in! Read the paper behind our coarse #fishpassage project which trialled a novel #LowCostBaffle design on the #Hogsmill gauging station: bit.ly/2BTv6De A great collaborative project between us, Durham Uni Aquatic Animal Ecology Lab and Environment AgencySE

This World Wildlife Day celebrates #LifeBelowWater 🐟 Durham Uni Aquatic Animal Ecology Lab carry out crucial research into the ecology of our aquatic species. River Lampreys can't jump over obstacles like weirs, creating bypasses may help them get to their spawning grounds more easily 📷 Jack Perks

Our Durham Uni Aquatic Animal Ecology Lab have been studying how sea & brown trout behave at a newly installed fishway during upstream spawning migration. As fishways become more common, we need to ensure that they function well for the potential fish that may use it AMBER #WorldWildlifeDay

Pre & post weir removal in these two images from fixed point photography. Remarkable change in channel characteristics. But what else has happened? My latest The Wild Trout Trust #WTTBlog One year on now the weir is gone... wildtrout.org/wttblog/one-ye… #LetItFlow #fishpassage #happyfish

New fully-funded Research Masters studentship available in our lab: "Determining the conservation needs of exploited migratory lampreys" will use telemetry techniques to track aspects of the river lamprey migration. Click on the link for more info: dur.ac.uk/biosciences/po…

Funded 1-year Masters by Research (by thesis) available to work at Martyn Lucas's Durham Uni Aquatic Animal Ecology Lab in a project entitled: “Determining the conservation needs of exploited migratory lampreys”. Gr8 lab to work in and loads of tracking. Pls. RT #FishSci dur.ac.uk/biosciences/po…

Our lab member Angus Lothian will be giving a short talk on the salmon of NE England after @PalaceGreenLib free showing of award-winning film ARTIFISHAL in August. Should be an interesting event!
