Once the site information has been added, see ticket #161

Please can you do the following for each SASS assessment as per the data specified in the file - all Oct or Nov 1995

• Add photographs - Helen still to find and provide
• check taxa are correct from datasheets- some taxa different, for e.g. Zygoptera juvs. not included anymore so leave. Ephemerellidae = Teloganodidae; Also there was a group TRICHOPTERA (CASE CADDIS 1 TYPES) ; 2 or 3.
• Add Water surface width from form
• Add Embeddedness from form
• Check Temperature, Conductivity, pH, Dissolved Oxygen, Turbidity NTU values - NB first check using SASS Dashboard, as sometimes data are there, but don't come up on the form
• Change Source Reference from Rivers Database to Published report Helen Dallas, Day JA, Musibono DE. & Day EG. 1998. Water quality for aquatic ecosystems: tools for evaluating regional guidelines. Water Research Commission Report No. 626/1/98.

@helendallas I have done the following:

• check taxa are correct from datasheets- some taxa different, for e.g. Zygoptera juvs. not included anymore so leave. Ephemerellidae = Teloganodidae; Also there was a group TRICHOPTERA (CASE CADDIS 1 TYPES) ; 2 or 3.

• Change Source Reference from Rivers Database to Published report Helen Dallas, Day JA, Musibono DE. & Day EG. 1998. Water quality for aquatic ecosystems: tools for evaluating regional guidelines. Water Research Commission Report No. 626/1/98.

I just need to add the photos when you send them through. There is also a word doc with a lot of other water quality data, do I add that as well?

@helendallas the water quality csv in FBIS is not pulling through for the sites with a single SASS entry (1995) the first one is correct for H4HOUT-DEHOE but then every other site the water data stays the same as H4HOUT-DEHOE. The csv for sites with multiple SASS data on different dates pulls through correctly.

[Janette-Lumley]

@helendallas the csv is correct now and pulling through the correct data

Thanks @Janette-Lumley closing ticket as I cant find the photos at the moment
