Framework for reservoir sedimentation estimation using the hydrological model and campaign—A case study of A Vuong reservoir in central Vietnam

International Journal of Sediment Research
Sediment estimation would help practice sustainable watershed management and efficient reservoir operation. Different methods exist to estimate reservoir sedimentation based on the differences in sediment yield flowing in and releasing from the reservoir

Using the Diet Composition of Adult Chinook Salmon to Understand the Regional Structure of Salish Sea Forage Communities

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish and other forage species are patchily distributed over space and time, resulting in variable foraging conditions experienced by their predators. The high‐resolution data necessary to understand the spatiotemporal structure of forage communities are challenging to collect with expensive fishery‐independent surveys, meaning ...

Demonstration of an instream flow model to accommodate a threatened tiger beetle in riverine dune habitat

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Burrows of the threatened Gibson's Big Sand Tiger Beetle in riverine dune habitats are susceptible to flooding through managed flows. HEC‐RAS modelling identified the flow thresholds above which flooding would occur for burrows and affect the beetle larvae. These findings provide instream flow guidelines for conserving this threatened species and guide

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

Estimation of near-coastal bathymetry using AIS ship movements

WMU Journal of Maritime Affairs
AbstractIn near coastal environments, nautical charts provide crucial information for navigation and routing both in real-time operations and during planning stages. The cost of data collection as well as capacity constraints in the processing pipeline make reliable bathymetric information in such areas sparse.

Monthly differences in the movement ecology of lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) in eastern Lake Ontario

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lake whitefish are a cold‐water species that holds cultural and economic importance throughout the Great Lakes region. Anthropogenic stressors over the last 60 years (e.g., invasive species, habitat degradation, and pollution) have caused significant declines in their populations.

Plasticity in the reproductive biology of Yellowstone cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus virginalis bouvieri in Yellowstone Lake following lake trout Salvelinus namaycush invasion

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Yellowstone cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus virginalis bouvieri in Yellowstone Lake are the focus of intensive conservation efforts due to the threat of predation by invasive lake trout Salvelinus namaycush. Suppression gillnetting has reduced the abundance of predatory lake trout, and the Yellowstone cutthroat trout population is recovering ...

Insights into the structure of grey reef shark aggregation, Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos (Bleeker, 1856), in two distinct channels of the Maldivian archipelago, Indian Ocean

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The grey reef shark Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos is one of the most frequently encountered reef‐associated shark species in the Maldives, yet very little is known about its local size structure or population dynamics. This study provides new insights into two aggregations of C.

Wave kinematics-based bathymetry estimates from satellite optical video

Coastal Engineering
Here, cBathyShortDwell, a version of the spectral depth inversion algorithm cBathy adapted for shorter record lengths, was applied to four 29.9-60s satellite-based optical videos and the resulting bathymetry estimates were compared to surveys collected within 13 days of each satellite collect.

Lake Water Storage and Long-Term Variation of Nganga Rinco on the Tibetan Plateau Revealed by ICESat-2 and Satellite Imagery

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Lake storage in Nganga Rinco serves as a crucial indicator of climate change and is significant for the ecological environment. This study combines ICESat-2, the Global Surface Water dataset, and geographic interpolation to derive lake bathymetry and ...
