Ethan Silvester – a current MSc student - and Dr Andy Pledger have been awarded £3,250 from the “Fishmongers company”. The award is an academic sponsorship to help support Ethan’s MSc student project titled “Impacts of Water Injection Dredging on benthic motile diatom assemblages in a tidal river”.
This project links to the larger EPSRC/IDB-funded project which Dr Dapeng Yu, Dr David Ryves, Prof. Paul Wood and Matthew Johnson (University of Nottingham, formerly Loughborough University) are involved in.
