River restoration projects would benefit from: '(a) clear, measurable & evidence-based objectives, (b) thorough assessment of risks through wide consultation, (c) scientifically-robust monitoring of impacts & (d) provision for adaptive management...' onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Nature recovery & restoration planning '...the removal of channel modifications, reductions in nitrate concentrations and reductions in total dissolved phosphorus concentrations as the most likely to deliver species abundance targets...' onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/rr…

Interesting new paper on prescribed burning in UK: 'Our work provides early evidence that the regulation of burning in England may be having the desired effect of reducing burned area and that the previously sought voluntary agreements were ineffective' …lpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/rs…

'Any effects of forest cover on increasing catchment infiltration & storage are masked by soil hydraulic properties...This highlights the importance of understanding... controls on catchment storage when using tree planting as a flood management strategy' sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

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.

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.
