The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Differences in early developmental rate and yolk conversion efficiency in offspring of trout with alternative life histories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Partial migration, in which some individuals of a population migrate while other individuals remain resident, is generally associated with ontogenetic shifts to better feeding areas or as a response to environmental instability, but its underlying ...

Lipid correction of hydrogen stable isotope ratios in fish

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Lipids are known to affect stable isotope ratio of organisms, especially δ13C values, and simple arithmetic lipid‐correction procedures have been developed based on the carbon to nitrogen ratio (C : N) that is a proxy for lipid content. Equivalent issues will likely arise with the increasing use of hydrogen isotopes in ecology, but as yet no ...

Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae infection affects the expression of genes involved in cellular signal transduction and iron metabolism in the kidney of the brown trout Salmo trutta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae is an enigmatic endoparasite which causes proliferative kidney disease in various species of salmonids in Europe and North America. The life cycle of the European strain of T.

Mass-Marking Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout Fingerlings with Oxytetracycline

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2005
ABSTRACT We immersed fingerling rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and brown trout (Salmo trutta) in a 500-mg/L solution of oxytetracycline (OTC) for 6 h to determine marking efficacy. The technique marked 100% and 92% of rainbow trout and brown trout otoliths, respectively.

Bioclimatic, demographic and anthropogenic correlates of grizzly bear activity patterns in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Plasticity of diel activity rhythms may be a key element for adaptations of wildlife populations to changing environmental conditions. In the last decades, grizzly bears Ursus arctos in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) have experienced notable environmental fluctuations, including changes in availability of food sources and severe droughts ...

Temporal changes in the dietary niche of sympatric seals provides insight into the role of competition in population declines

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Competition theory suggests that interspecific prey competition can result in changes to the dietary niche, but obtaining timeseries of data from sympatric species experiencing temporal variation in competition is challenging. Scotland is an important area for two species of seals, but over the past 20 years, populations of harbour seals Phoca vitulina

Linking landscape characteristics, streamwater acidity and brown trout (Salmo trutta) distributions in a boreal stream network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Perturbations of stream ecosystems are often mediated by the terrestrial watershed, making the understanding of linkages between watersheds and streams essential.

Secondary Predation on the Horsehair Worm \u3ci\u3eGordius Robustus\u3c/i\u3e (Nematomorpha: Gordiida) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The gut contents of a brown trout (Salmo trutta) included horsehair worms (Gordius robustus, Nematomorpha: Gordiida) emerging from a camel cricket (Ceuthophilus sp., Orthoptera: Gryllacrididae).
