Notice Title

Cairngorms Lochs Macroinvertebrate Survey

Notice Description

We would like to contract a consultant to undertake a macroinvertebrate survey of one lochs and one watercourse within the Spey Catchment where beavers have either been recently released or may colonise in due course. The contract is for two surveys, one late spring and one autumn to be undertaken in 2024 to coincide with eDNA and acoustic monitoring. We would expect the contract will continue in future years to provide a measure of macroinvertebrate diversity which we hypothesise will increase and/or change in response to beaver presence.
