“Downstream of the Corryvreckan – tracking currents, Birds and Porpoises in the Great Race”
An Illustrated talk for everyone by Dr Andy Dale from S.A.M.S.
The Great Race, the turbulent outflow from the Gulf of Corryvreckan into the Firth of Lorn, is a fascinating place where complex, eddying currents provide a rich feeding ground for birds and marine mammals. This talk will chart recent investigations into the tidal currents of the Great Race, looking at its ecological effects and considering how seabirds and porpoises tune their behaviour to the tidal cycle.
