Thanks to Jessica Rodger and Chris Conroy from Atlantic Salmon Trust for presenting their studies on #Migration of #salmon and the restoration of its #ecosystem !

Back at SCENE for some lab work (also catching up with friends Phoebe). Here are some very characteristic features of the iconic University of Glasgow field station

Tara Marshall at #WFC2024 doing a fantastic job introducing the ⁦fsbi⁩ and other #fisheries societies in the wcfs.fisheries.org

We've reached a record 800 members! Beating the previous record set in 2014. We're thrilled that the FSBI is thriving, along with our mission to support scientific activity in fish & fisheries science through charitable activities. Thanks to our members for their vital support!

Made it to SCENE Not bad eh?

It has taken 45 authors, 1914 tagged fish, from 25 rivers in 8 projects to describe the coastal pathways taken by salmon smolts from Ireland, N. Ireland, W Scotland & England in this new paper. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jf… Jessica Rodger Jessie Lilly Atlantic Salmon Trust Colin Bean

Tremendous work by all in this new paper Nith Fishery Trust James Thorburn @BrianShields78 James Barry Samantha V. Beck Phil Ramsden Diego del Villar

I am very grateful my project was awarded fsbi's Outgoing Postdoctoral Travelling Fellowship! The research will work with Ege University (Turkiye) to look at contamination in fishes from summer 2025 🐟🇹🇷 Thank you Irmak, Ali Serhan Tarkan and Dr. Phillip J. Haubrock for their help

We'd like to congratulate Dr Erika Eliason who's been awarded this year's #FSBIMedal! 🏅 Erika's research has encompassed everything from tropical to polar fish biology - integrating physiology across disciplines. Some of Erika's most well known work involves salmonids & policy.

Great pre-viva talk from Sam Fenton at UofG SBOHVM today - and some good discussion afterwards. Onwards to the big event. Kathryn R Elmer Colin Adams SCENE

Professor Patricia Monaghan FRS is elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. She is an evolutionary ecologist whose research focuses on the ecology, life histories and rates of ageing of vertebrates. #RSFellows royalsociety.org/people/patrici…

There is no better place to come and do your studies. Amazing place, fantastic people and lots and lots of fascinating questions to research.

Interested to learn more about SCENE featured on last night's BBC Springwatch? In this edition of UofG Community, we spoke to SCENE Research Support Manager Phoebe to hear more about her role and UofG's pioneering research and teaching facility situated in a truly

"How big is too big" is a question that is always asked of the tag sizes used in smolt tracking studies - this is a valuable contribution to this discussion. Jessica Rodger Colin Adams Angus Lothian Deveron Bogie Isla Atlantic Salmon Trust SCENE UofG SBOHVM onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ef…

Salmon with genes for becoming large have smaller scales for their body size. Thus, when using scales to study relationship between growth and maturation, better to use back-calculation instead of direct measures of scale size cdnsciencepub.com/doi/pdf/10.113… Geir H.

How successfully salmon smolts migrate down river can be in part predicted by the landscape of the catchment Jessica Rodger Atlantic Salmon Trust SCENE
