SmartRivers

The TGA carried out a number of Invertebrate Samplings on the rivers Ericht, Ardle, Shee, Lochay, Dean and Lyon in 2021. 2022 and 2023. These samplings are done under the auspices of the WildFish charity which is a major advocate of ensuring our rivers are clean and unpolluted to ensure the survival of wild fish.

A typical sampling report (this one from the River Lyon) is here
