Super combination of observational data with modelling…..
Including some Burrishoole salmon Smolt migration data
"differences [in migration speed] are related to changes in local ocean conditions: years with lower on-shelf salinity, stronger on-shelf northwest currents, and stronger shelf-edge currents were associated with greater migration success" academic.oup.com/icesjms/adva...

After one of the wettest Augusts in our records (exceeded only by 1985) we eventually kicked off our electrofishing surveys in the Burrishoole catchment #BurrishooleLTER @MarineInst @MetEireann
Initial indications of very good densities of juvenile salmon and trout 😀🐟🐟

We collect #Macroinvertebrates from 16 index sites around the Burrishoole catchment each year to signal environmental change. Year 20 aided by Adrian Rinaldo @invent_water and Matthew Hoskins @ittralee
Lovely day for it 🙂💦🐟🐛🐌🦟🦟🌞
