Abstract In marine ecosystems, environmental conditions shape important ecological processes. The equatorial Galápagos Marine Reserve (GMR) is known for great spatial variation in the upwelling of cold nutrient‐rich waters and the input of warm Panamanian waters. Differences in oceanography influence the structure of benthic communities.

Species‐specific drivers explain fish feeding and individual niche variation
Abstract The trophic ecology of animals often results from complex interactions between environmental and biological drivers. Yet, studies that explore trophic ecology across multiple fish species while considering a wide range of environmental variables remain limited. In this study, we analysed diet and niche variation in fish communities across five

Assessing resource use as a predictor for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolt body size
Abstract Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) have experienced significant population declines in eastern Canada for the past 30 years, primarily attributed to at‐sea mortality. To identify factors contributing to smolt body size, which has been associated with variations in survival, we examined various predictors in linear mixed‐effect models using data ...

Diplostomum‐Induced Sac Formation in Lenses of Ameiurus Bullheads: A Host Defence Response?
ABSTRACT Trematodes of the genus Diplostomum (Diplostomidae) are widely distributed and significant fish pathogens known for causing a range of negative effects. Any mechanism that protects the host from the parasite thus represents an evolutionary advantage.
