Consideration of Annex II species is of a paramount importance when undertaking HRA / EIA. For more information about the lesser known Annex II shad, refer to the @InsideEcology article produced by @RSKBiocensus Associate Director Dr Peter Walker.

Noticed a moribund sea trout in the River Meon on my morning dog walk today. Looks to be spent post spawning, a good sign for this Hampshire chalk stream! #aquaticecology #wildtrout #seatrout #rivermeon

Early start to catch the morning tide, but always enjoy a nice boat ride to site to undertake another intertidal survey on the Thames.

Attended an enjoyable site visit today (despite the rain) to learn about the Tichborne River Restoration Project undertaken by @EnvAgency and @Aquascienceltd. Great work all round and thanks to @The_RRC for organising.

[Matthew Davison @MD_Anableps]

Great result to an interesting and enjoyable project - many thanks to @MSDSMarine and @HistoricEngland for your support and guidance. Looking forward to the next one!

Many thanks to the guys last Sunday @cardiffintww for helping me out of a tricky situation. My arm is on the mend and back in its socket - most importantly there was no need to cut any of my gear off... thanks again!

[Matthew Davison @MD_Anableps]

Sad to learn about the death of a juvenile humpback whale after becoming entangled and washing ashore in East Lothian. Hopefully this will help prevent this from happening again. https://t.co/oCTZrqO26f

Our new #BlueROV2 will provide an excellent means of collecting seabed & infrastructure images for analysis. Expect it to outperform the traditional Drop-Down Video systems in many areas by providing steerage, improved camera control and overall versatility. #benthicecology #rov

[Carcinus Ltd @Carcinus_Ltd]

Absolutely delighted with the delivery, customer service, environmentally sensitive packaging and quality of the #BlueROV2 and #BlueROVHeavy from @BlueRobotics. The build was easy and enjoyable and we are looking forward to putting it through its paces for #ecology #marinebiology
