Aquatic Ecology

We can conduct a wide range of aquatic ecology services, from field sampling to statistical analysis and reporting across freshwater, estuarine, and marine environments.

Some examples of what we can offer:

• Macroinvertebrate identification, taxonomy and quantification

• Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) identification, taxonomy, and quantification

• Specialist univariate, multivariate, and graphical routines for analysing species sampling data for community ecology (e.g., multi-dimensional scaling, ordination, clustering, etc)

• Water and sediment quality sampling, laboratory analysis, and reporting

• Tracing sources, extent, and the spread of pollution and environmental change

• Assessing the impacts of aquaculture on surrounding ecosystems

• Reconstructing food webs, both past, and present

• Tracking animal movement and migration patterns

• Quantifying mining contamination levels (Pb isotopes)
