	River Eden - Special Area of Conservation - SAC
		Ullswater, in the catchment of the River Eden, is the second-largest of the Cumbrian lakes.
		The Eden is a river with high water quality that supports a large population of white-clawed crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes in the northern part of its range in England.
		The high ecological value of the river system and the fact that the salmon are able to use most of the catchment (even above Ullswater, a large natural lake on the main river), mean that the Eden is able to maintain a large population of salmon.

	Using “River Habitat Survey” to Plan Habitat Improvements for Fish
		River Habitat Survey (RHS), (Raven et al., 1997; Fox et al., 1998), was developed to describe and evaluate physical habitat at national, catchment and lesser scales in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
		The second case study is on the River Eden, where catchment-wide evaluation has been used to produce suggestions for improved habitat management practises with the ultimate aim of increasing trout and salmon stocks.
		River water quality is high throughout the catchment and the Eden provides excellent salmon fisheries.

	Derivation of the Names of Lake District Rivers
		The same British root is found in the River Dart in Devon, the River Darent in Kent, the River Darwen in Lancashire and the Yorkshire and Derbyshire Derwents.
		This is probably the British river-name 'Isca', similar to the River Exe in Devon and derived from the same root as the Welsh 'esk', water.
		The first element is probably Welsh 'glyndwfr', a river valley; the second element may be a superfluous O.N. 'á', a river; the last could be a Welsh word 'mochyn', meaning 'swine'.

		Any site in the country surveyed using RHS can therefore be categorised on the basis of river type and observed features compared with a national or regional ‘norm’.
		The technique can also be used to assess changes in the characteristics of a site over a number of years and can be used to determine the effects of events such as changes in flow regime or drought.
