More photos of the repaired BDA instream stuctures on Lost River, tributary of the Mattole river. They held up well to extremely high flows last winter. These are permeable dams that mimic beaver dams. This is a Sanctuary Forest Project within the Mattole Watershed, to enhance summer stream flows in the Mattole river, and salmonid habitat enhancement

Time for a short #introduction I guess. I'm Clémence Fraslin, core scientist at the Roslin Institute in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. I'm a quantitative geneticist in Aquaculture, with a main interest in disease resistance and sustainability. I study genetic architecture of traits and genomic selection mainly in #salmonids.
I love talking about food 🧀, baking 🥧, reading, my house plants and cats, especially the one that lives with me (or maybe I live with him?) Here's a picture of Le Chat👇
