Under the European Union Water Framework Directive, Member States must put in place a river basin planning framework to determine what measures are necessary to maintain and improve the ecological status for all surface water bodies. The governmental...

Establishing survey and monitoring protocols for the assessment of conservation status of fish populations in river Special Areas of Conservation in the UK (2008)
Journal Article
Cowx, I. G., Harvey, J., Noble, R., & Nunn, A. D. (2008). Establishing survey and monitoring protocols for the assessment of conservation status of fish populations in river Special Areas of Conservation in the UK. Aquatic conservation : marine and freshwater ecosystems, 19(1), 96-103. https://doi.org/10.1002/aqc.968

1. Under the EC Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC), several rivers in the UK have been designated Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) because they support important populations of fish species. Several factors need to be considered when establishing sur...

The diets and parasites of larval and 0+ juvenile twaite shad in the lower reaches and estuaries of the rivers Wye, Usk and Towy, UK (2008)
Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Noble, R. A. A., Harvey, J. P., & Cowx, I. G. (2008). The diets and parasites of larval and 0+ juvenile twaite shad in the lower reaches and estuaries of the rivers Wye, Usk and Towy, UK. Hydrobiologia, 614(1), 209-218. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-008-9507-9

This study assessed the diets and parasites of larval and 0+ juvenile twaite shad Alosa fallax fallax in the lower reaches and estuaries of the rivers Wye, Usk and Towy, UK. There were significant differences between the diets of larvae and co-habiti...

Towards a structured approach to building qualitative reasoning models and simulations (2008)
Journal Article
Bredeweg, B., Salles, P., Bouwer, A., Liem, J., Nuttle, T., Cioaca, E., Nakova, E., Noble, R., Caldas, A. L. R., Uzunov, Y., Varadinova, E., & Zitek, A. (2008). Towards a structured approach to building qualitative reasoning models and simulations. Ecological informatics, 3(1), 1-12. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoinf.2007.02.002

Successful transfer and uptake of qualitative reasoning technology for modelling and simulation in a variety of domains has been hampered by the lack of a structured methodology to support formalisation of ideas. We present a framework that structure... Read More about Towards a structured approach to building qualitative reasoning models and simulations.
