Sex‐Specific Atlantic Salmon Upstream Passage and Fallback at a Natural Cascade After Dam Removal
ABSTRACT In the Boquet River (NY, USA) a low‐head dam set above a ~200‐m bedrock cascade was removed in 2015. We used radio‐telemetry to assess landlocked Atlantic salmon passage at the remaining cascade (2020, 2022). Across years, 52% of males (13/25) attempted cascade passage whereas females made no discernable attempts (0/11).

ABSTRACT While body size is the primary driver of fecundity, other factors may contribute to variation in these relationships. Anadromous populations of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) have diverse life histories, and fisheries management relies on accurate fecundity estimates.

ABSTRACT To study variables that may trigger the dispersion of the currently expanding European catfish in its native distribution limits, 42 individuals were captured from Upper Lake Constance (lentic) and 42 from two streaming tributaries (lotic), fitted with pressure and temperature loggers, and released at the site of capture (control: lotic or ...

Biogeography of Atlantic Salmon in the Cape Breton Highlands, Canada
ABSTRACT Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) populations have experienced significant declines in recent decades. In Canada, conservation efforts are divided into 16 designatable units (DUs) to address unique regional challenges among genetically distinct populations.

ABSTRACT Habitat restoration may protect brown trout (Salmo trutta) populations from loss of genetic diversity by increasing environmental carrying capacity and, consequently, population size. However, the accompanying release of hatchery‐reared fish may threaten the genetic integrity of native populations through introgression.

Abstract There is a growing interest in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture to extend the time fish are reared in freshwater (FW) recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), producing larger FW salmon that can then be induced to undergo smoltification before transfer into marine net pens for grow‐out and harvest.

Abstract Wild Atlantic salmon migrate to sea following completion of a developmental process known as parr‐smolt transformation (PST), which establishes a seawater (SW) tolerant phenotype. Effective imitation of this aspect of anadromous life history is a crucial aspect of commercial salmon production, with current industry practice being marred by ...

Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
