We might have high wind & waves, but field surveys still went ahead earlier today to collect data to study fish assemblages in Carmarthen Bay - followed by an extended data entry session to warm up!

Beach Seine netting surveys efficiency certainly increased in howling winds and very cold conditions this morning with super team work by this group of hardy marine biologists Swansea Marine Biology studying fish in sheltered saltmarsh in Carmarthen Bay
