LamTre20/21: Upstream spawning migration of river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) in the River Trent, 2020-2021 Citable as data publication Hull International Fisheries Institute (HIFI), University of Hull: United Kingdom; (2022): Upstream spawning migration of river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) in the River Trent, 2020-2021. https://doi.org/10.14284/598 Contact: Jubb, William Availability: This dataset is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Description This study investigated the upstream spawning migration of anadromous river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) in the River Trent, a heavily fragmented tributary of the Humber Estuary- the location of one of the largest river lamprey populations in the UK. River lamprey released upstream (n = 16) and downstream (n = 15) of Cromwell Weir were tracked from the upper estuary (Keadby) to upstream of the fourth weir encountered (Gunthorpe Weir). Receivers were also located in the Yorkshire Ouse catchment, which joins with the Trent at Trent Falls (to create the Humber Estuary). Overall, this study quantified river lamprey migration, spawning habitat distribution and historic river levels to develop a novel empirical index to understand the impact of man-made barriers and prioritise their remediation. moreThe geographical coverage for this project covered the river Trent, from Keadby to upstream of the fourth weir encountered (Gunthorpe Weir). Also included receivers in the River Yorkshire Ouse up to the first weir encountered in the main river (Naburn Weir) and the River Wharfe up to the fourth weir encountered (Wetherby Weir).
