A pleasure to host the Freshwater Biological Association (FBA) Fellows, staff and early career reps meeting at Dept of Biosciences, Nottingham Trent University today. Exciting plans for activities supporting UK + wider freshwater community. Thank you Nottingham Trent University Institute for Knowledge Exchange for support 🥪🍰☕ Craig Macadam Kate Mathers


Check out beth_mondon's article about developing ecologically relevant fine sediment targets for chalk streams, just published on Freshwater Biological Association (FBA) website fba.org.uk/articles/towar…

New review by me Romain Sarremejane Judy England et al. is out in WIRES Water. We explore effects of past & future drought on biodiversity in UK rivers. Could increasingly extreme droughts push systems to persistent, species-poor, functionally simplified states? doi.org/10.1002/wat2.1…

Welcome to GeorgeA George Amisi joining team Robert Ian Collier at Dept of Biosciences, Nottingham Trent University today on a 6-week NTU Employability Science & Technology graduate internship. George is contributing to research to inform restoration of England's rather wonderful chalk winterbournes Tim Sykes @riversandpeople.bsky.social


Very happy to contribute to Robert Ian Collier Tim Sykes @riversandpeople.bsky.social research documenting aquatic and terrestrial invertebrate community responses to this wonderful example of winterbourne restoration The RRC. Nice work Action for the River Kennet (ARK)!


Hear hear, Alisha Steward! Congratulations Arnaud Foulquier for leading this exciting demonstration of the immense aquatic–terrestrial biodiversity lurking within dry riverbeds. And thank you Arnaud Thibault Datry @tdatry.bsky.social et al. The 1000 Intermittent Rivers Project for your collaboration 🍻 nature.com/articles/s4146…

Thank you Romain Sarremejane for your hard graft leading this collaborative Environment Agency NTUScienceTechnology research, demonstrating clear potential to enhance ecological resilience to drought by managing human impacts doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

The Small Streams Network dry-phase plant survey fieldwork is done! Despite following England’s wettest 18 months on record 🌧, we found 36 dry sites 😎. Huge respect Oliver Longstaffe GeorgeA Simon & Billy. Dept of Biosciences, Nottingham Trent University NTUScienceTechnology Environment Agency collaborative research 🌿



Thanks for sharing your vision for river restoration planning and assessment this month Martin Wilkes 😊 tinyurl.com/242k2v2j Contact me (as editor of Freshwater Biological Association (FBA) science articles) if you'd like to write an article for a future newsletter

Billy Kane's🤘↙ last day. Thanks Billy, George Amisi & other Dept of Biosciences, Nottingham Trent University CIEEM-accredited BSc Environmental Biology students & graduates who contributed to our research over summer. Time to release these skilled early-career freshwater ecologists 🔬🐛💧into the wild!💪




I've joined friends including @Albert_Ruhi Fredrik Jutfelt @jutfelt.bsky.social Ian Vaughan Michelle Busch, PhD @oldenfish Thibault Datry @tdatry.bsky.social on Bluesky. Hope to see you there. rstubbington.bsky.social 🦋
