Ecology - Tales from the field

8. Hannah Mossman - Salt marshes / managed realignments / Steart Marshes


Listen Later

Tim talks with Dr Hannah Mossman (Senior lecturer in ecology at Manchester Metropolitan University), and also to Alys Laver  (Senior Conservation Warden for the Wildfowl & Wetland Trust)

In this interview we talk about all things salt marsh, from managed realignment projects to Charles Dickens. We discuss Hannah's research on the Wildfowl & Wetland Trust's site at Steart Marshes and there's a bonus interview spliced in with Alys Laver, the WWT warden for the site. If you didn't already think salt marshes were up there with the most facinating and important habitats, you soon will!
