Joined September 2017
Two days with informative lectures, interactive workshops, a visit to the Ship Simulation Centre and the autonomous survey vessel work of @hrwallingford. But also timely and practical discussions for the future of our industry.

#ARCboatlite #ADCP boat's eye view of Henley Royal Regatta course in all its glory. Looking great for this week's Women's Regatta. (No, we didn't map water speeds, just a demo for @STFC_Matters!) @hrwallingford

Great to see the @ARCboat in action and helping to provide the @EnvAgencyMids critical information during these flood events
River Derwent peaking at #Matlock Bath this morning at 220 tonnes per second. The Highest flow we have measured here. @EnvAgencyMids Flood warnings in force as the peak travels towards #Derby #Derbyshire

How can we understand the impact of offshore developments on marine life? @ZacNashResearch of @BangorUni is using our #ARCboat to autonomously track marine life to understand their movements in a collaboration with @KESS_Central and @wefowales. Long read: https://t.co/ZnTGqDxsfG

The ARCboat Lite was in action in Avonmouth Docks last week. Our portable survey vessel acquired high-resolution bathymetric data while conducting a vessel demonstration for EDF. Surveyors operated the remote-controlled vessel while staying safely onshore.

Our Emma Brown has appeared on BBC Midlands Today talking about #flood defences and #climate change. Our ARCboat also featured, along with shots of the Froude Modelling Hall. The @bbcmtd programme will be on BBC iPlayer until 7pm today: https://t.co/M0otVtL3RH

A camera-equipped ARCboat has been out on the River Neckar in Germany taking river gauging and discharge measurements. We recently supplied the remote-controlled vessel to WSA Neckar, which oversees the waterway. ARCboat info: https://t.co/mioOyaM58O

Great talk from @ZacNashResearch from @BangorUni on the use of our Orca recorders on the @hrwallingford ARCboat system. Using multiple hydrophones to track and followed acoustically tagged fish species. #MATS2020 #TrackingNotSlacking @Innovasea

Our #ARCboat has been used by Zac in his research into autonomous fish tracking technology. Zac is speaking at the Marine Autonomy & Technology Showcase 2020 on 10-12 November. The programme is at
Come see me present at the first day of #MATS2020 talking about #Oceanrobots and #marinetechnology. @KESS_Central

Our #ARCboat is supporting leading-edge research into autonomous fish tracking technology. @ZacNashResearch of @BangorUni has trialled new sensor arrangements in north Wales to help better understand fish migration routes and movement patterns. @KESS_Central @BangorSEE

A model of a turbine foundation for @SeagreenWind being lowered into our Fast Flow Facility. Our tests will determine the effects of scour (erosion around the structure by waves and currents) and help prevent it from occurring. #FlumeFriday #offshorewind #OffshoreEngineering

George Woolhouse's new piece for #WorldEnvironmentDay2020 looks at how small island nations can create climate resilience in their water supplies. He explores small island issues, explains a recent initiative, and expounds the benefits to other nations. https://t.co/4IWvBudp3d

Fantastic performance from our new #ARCboatlite in perhaps the most challenging conditions so far...! 58 tonnes a second on R Teme, water speed almost 2m/sec. A brand new #ADCP on board too....! More, better river info to manage floods, droughts & everything in between.

Water as far as the eye can see on the River Trent at North Muskham. First time we have ever measured the entire floodplain flow with the @hrwallingford Arc Boat. @EnvAgencyMids River peaked just 0.25 m below the November 2000 Record.

With big brother #ARCBoat already out, time to see what #ARCboatlite can cope with.... Excellent performance on Thames, Wey & Jubilee rivers. R Wey at Guildford here, 33 tonnes water per second. 163 in Thames at Reading ... Looks fun. Is fun. Is also VITAL flood information.

These #ARCboatlite gauging videos seem popular, so here's another. But with a twist.... Which #ADCPNerd can spot my deliberate mistake while testing a new #ADCP today? These innovative tools transform efficiency & safety for our vital #Hydrometry river monitoring.

How much water can our brand new #ARCboatlite #ADCP #DroneBoat measure? No problem with 110 tonnes a second on the Thames! (A few days ago, flow has dropped since then...!)

@ThamesPathNT Boat is used to accurately monitor how much water is flowing down our rivers. To calibrate our flow gauging stations; vital for managing floods, droughts and everything in between. Tech developed by @hrwallingford with @EnvAgency

Maiden voyage for our Research @ARCboat! Fantastic day out, hopefully we'll be back soon with full autonomy! Excited to be ready for the next stages here at @BangorUni
