Assignment:
On the topic titled; "The movement and migration of fish in the hull river", is a desktop based research study which implies the use of data from other resources and sources to make the analysis of this research study. Regarding my research objectives which includes ;
Objective of my research study
1. To identify the key factors that influence these movement and migration patterns. This could include a range of environmental, physical, and biological factors, such as water quality, temperature, water flow, presence of barriers, predation, and food availability.
2. To assess the impacts of anthropogenic activities (e.g., construction of dams, pollution) on fish movement and migration. This would involve a review of literature on how such activities have impacted fish populations in similar environments.
3. To propose evidence-based strategies for improving fish migration in the River Hull. Based on the gathered data and analysis, this would involve making recommendations for policy and management strategies to protect and enhance fish migration in the River Hull.
Here are a few key papers that can help you gather and arrange the data on the movement and migration of fish in river systems:
1. Smith, J. K., & Johnson, A. B. (2018). Movement ecology of riverine fish: Recent advances and future directions. Journal of Fish Biology, 92(3), 732-748.

Requirements: I am new to desktop based research study and I will be happy if you can gather all the necessary data required for the objectives of my study from other sources. Also, after collecting and gathering the data from the research studies, kindly indicate the justification of the data collected and how it will add up to this research study and indicate the type of analysis that is needed to analyze the data.
