Description
Rachel Ainsworth and seven co-authors share two decades of young fish measures from English rivers in a 2024 data paper. Long records help scientists read change in river life over time. The dataset holds body lengths of larval and juvenile fish. Samples came from five river catchments across England.
The set holds more than 380,000 fish of 30 species. Teams caught fish almost monthly for about twenty years. Length data can reveal growth rates and survival odds. It can also show how strong each new year class will be. The authors offer the set as a baseline for climate and pollution studies. Fish size links to swim skill, survival, and breeding output.
