We’re back for another season, and ready to go hard! Today we met up with Erica and Darren Porter, as well as some collaborators from DFO, in order to set up the receivers that will be deployed for this year's studies. Receivers come in many shapes and sizes, but more importantly in various frequencies. This year there will be a number of studies happening in Minas Basin and its tributary rivers, and different studies use different frequencies for their tags, so it's important to have receivers match for detections to register. Darren and Erica are collaborators on various projects with our lab, as well as Dalhousie, DFO and Mi’kmaw Conservation Group, helping deploy receivers, tag fish, and collect the data. They will be deploying HR2 and WR2W receivers in the Cogmagun River, Halfway River, St. Croix River, Avon River, and in near-shore waters throughout Minas Basin, which we are helping them set up today. The Minas Basin is a tough environment for gear to be in, so we have to be very rigorous with our attachments. Amongst other things, this means lots and lots of duct tape! Each mount will carry two receivers: an HR2, capable of detecting the HR and the traditional 18o kHz PPM signals, and a VR2W, capable of detecting 69 kHz signals. In addition to these, combo HR2 and VR2Ws will be deployed by FORCE employees at the turbine test site in Minas Passage. But that's not all! The Ocean Tracking Network (OTN) also has a line of 180-VR2Ws stretched across Minas Basin. With all these receivers, and numerous fish tagging operations happening over the summer, we look forwards to collecting lots of data!
