The bad one

Geoff at the risk of subverting this into a Wye salmon thread, as a salmon river it’s Fc Uked mate! And for this reason, the river temperature in headwaters are not dropping to the required temperatures for spawning and fry survival to be successful because of climate change. There’s now clear evidence there’s a northern shift to the most successful rivers in this regard. The dividing line falls somewhere around the Welsh River Dee. That dividing line is only going keep moving northward as climate change becomes more severe.
As to a summary still reading it mate!
Someone said, its PhD thesis which is correct, it is. But was paid for and supported by the EA under contract to Hull Uni to do the research that they wanted, as they no longer have the manpower resource in-house due to cuts. So such research goes out to contract to consultancies and academic institutions to bid for. That’s the way in the modern world.
The Lass doing the research on it would be a post graduate researcher at HU who may have been working towards a PhD. And/or brought in specifically to do the research with the offer of getting a PhD out of it from HU. Which clearly she did, along with a job with the EA, because it’s now Dr Karen Twine. Good on you girl is my thoughts!
To clear up some confusion that’s crept in on reports there are two types - Technical and Scientific. Technical Reports have summaries to them, Scientific Reports don’t, they have Abstracts. An as the author submitted her findings report for her PhD, she wrote it as a Scientific Report. To do otherwise would have meant a likely fail.
