		On April 25, 1915, the River Clyde was used as a Trojan horse for the landing at Cape Helles during the Battle of Gallipoli.

	In Glasgow's once-filthy River Clyde, salmon are back (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
		The migratory fish, which vanished from the Clyde around 1880 after a long decline, first reappeared in the 1980s, but last year's survey was the first to show they've come back in healthy numbers.
		Although commercial salmon fishing was never widespread on the Clyde, the fish's return is symbolically important for Glasgow, where salmon were once so important to the city's identity that two are pictured on its official coat of arms.
		The decline of Glasgow's main industries helped boost the fortunes of a river that was essentially fishless for decades during the worst periods of pollution.

		Indeed, during extremely dry periods, the Clyde is, in its upper reaches, reduced to merely a trickle.
		The quality of this river is becoming widely recognised, with favourable support being received for the local application for listing on the National Estate of "The Waters of the Clyde" - such a listing recognising the need for this important natural asset to be protected for future generations.
		When locals talk about the Clyde, they are often referring to the upper catchment area of the river, shaped as it is by tectonic plate movement in the earth's crust to create the spectacular mountain and cliff terrain within which the Clyde rises.

	Brown trout point way to cleaner Clyde - Evening Times (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19)
		A survey of the river and its tributaries by the Clyde River Foundation found 12 species of fish in the 69 locations tested, with brown trout present in 94% of sites.
		Their presence throughout the Clyde system means a significant decrease in pollution which has choked up the river for years.
		It suggests these fish are probably present in the lower stretches of the river and around the main River Clyde.

	The History of Glasgow as a Ship Building City
		The River Clyde, from its source in the Lowther Hills to Greenock travels approximately 100 miles and drops 2,000 ft. The City of Glasgow is situated on the river as it starts to widen out as it approaches the sea.
		In 1768 deepening of the river was achieved by building a series of dykes to narrow the river channel and thereby increase the flow rate of the river which would in turn increase the scouring effect on the river bed.
		However, the main influence on the River Clyde's importance as a shipbuilding centre was the advent of the steam powered ship, from the building of the 'Comet' in Port Glasgow in 1812.

		Recent investigation and monitoring of the River Clyde by the newly formed Clyde River Foundation is confirming that salmon and sea trout are now returning to parts of the Clyde catchment, which they have not used for over a century.
		The principal cause of the extinction was pollution of the lower rivers and upper estuaries, with the demise of the rivers aggravated by the degradation of spawning and nursery areas through urban, domestic, colliery and other industrial wastes.
		The salmon began to return to the Clyde sometime around 1978 when they were noted ascending the River Gryfe in significant numbers and since then they have also become re-established naturally on at least six other river systems in the Central Belt of Scotland from which they had become extinct.
