UK Freshwater Quality Programme Webinar - CLEAR Neagh

Learn about CLEAR Neagh (Catchment-Level Environmental AMR & eDNA Reconnaissance for Lough Neagh), a new 18 month research project which is part of the NERC Freshwater Quality Programme.

The project is generating scientific evidence to support the restoration of Lough Neagh, Northern Ireland’s largest and most iconic lake. The session will cover why the lake is degrading, how pollution and antimicrobial resistance may be affecting the catchment, and how findings will inform a long-term recovery plan.

The webinar will be presented by project lead Dr Susheel Bhanu Busi, Head of Molecular Ecology at UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (UKCEH).

This webinar is one of a series on a range of related topics organised by the Champions team for the NERC Freshwater Quality programme. The webinars are designed to help promote communications and interactions between researchers, the policy community, business and practitioners who can all shape future UK freshwater quality.

Each webinar includes a 30 minute presentation with time for questions afterwards. The presentations are recorded  -  watch the up-to-date playlist here.
