Broad support for lethal control of wild deer among subscribers of nature organisations in England and Wales

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild deer populations are increasing across the northern hemisphere, posing challenges to the environment and people. Deer impacts can be managed using lethal and non‐lethal practices, but research suggests lethal control receives mixed support.

Using Linkage Maps as a Tool To Determine Patterns of Chromosome Synteny in the Genus Salvelinus

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
Next generation sequencing techniques have revolutionized the collection of genome and transcriptome data from nonmodel organisms. This manuscript details the application of restriction site-associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) to generate a marker-dense ...

Electrical phase angle as a new method to measure fish condition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this study, phase angle (the ratio of resistance and reactance of tissue to applied electrical current) is presented as a possible new method to measure fish condition.

‘Manure gets into your veins’: Navigating plural valuation among rural landowners upstream from a Tribe‐led restoration project

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological restoration projects with diverse interest groups face the continual challenge of engaging values, goals and cultures that may vary greatly among partners. As part of an eco‐cultural, riparian restoration project led by the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation, our research examines the instrumental, relational and intrinsic ...

Production of a YY Male Brook Trout Broodstock for Potential Eradication of Undesired Brook Trout Populations [PDF]

open access: yesNorth American Journal of Aquaculture, 2015
Abstract Brook Trout Salvelinus fontinalis introduced outside of their native range often negatively impact native aquatic fauna or provide marginal fisheries and are frequently targeted for manual or piscicide removal in lakes and streams.

Engineered Gravel Trench Hyporheic Exchange to Create Cold‐Water Thermal Refuges

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Warming rivers are driving a loss or fragmentation of cold‐water habitat and providing the impetus to develop proactive thermal management approaches to maintain suitable habitat in rivers. One innovative approach is through the creation of cold‐water thermal refuges during periods of thermal stress for aquatic species.

Risks to stocks of native trout of the genus Salmo (Actinopterygii: Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) of Serbia and management for their recovery [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2015
Background. Insufficiently controlled stocking compromises the high diversity of wild trout stocks of Serbia. Native brown trout, Salmo cf. trutta Linnaeus, 1758, and Macedonian trout, Salmo macedonicus (Karaman, 1924), reveal remarkable diversity ...

Ecological Characteristics of Stream Reaches With and Without Low‐Tech Process‐Based Restoration in a Wildfire‐Affected Catchment

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Low‐tech process‐based stream restoration (LTPBR) is increasingly implemented following wildfire, underscoring the need to evaluate restoration outcomes in burned catchments. To help address this need, we measured abiotic and biotic characteristics of a reach that received LTPBR, an untreated reach, and a reach with relict beaver activity that

Distribution of freshwater fish in the south-western corner of Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
This study investigates the distribution of freshwater fishes in the Busselton to Walpole Region. A total of 311 sites in 19 major catchments along the south-west coast from Capel to Walpole, were sampled using a variety of methods.

A Tool for Prioritizing Gravel Augmentation Reaches for Sediment Starved Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gravel augmentation is a widely used restoration technique used to improve habitat below dams, including salmonids spawning habitat. However, gravel augmentation can be cost‐prohibitive, and it is often unclear which stream segments have the highest potential to benefit spawning salmonids.
