We are especially grateful for comments received on an earlier draft of this report from staff in the FSA and Defra, and for the external reviews of Prof. Bob Doherty (University of York) and Prof. Bridget Emmett (Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, Bangor). These inputs have substantially improved this final version.
