Fish Migration Through Ship Locks at the Danube River, Austria

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longitudinal connectivity in the Austrian section of the Danube has improved over the last three decades thanks to the progressive installation of fish passage facilities at hydropower plants. However, navigation locks which are present at all barrages remain poorly quantified with respect to their role in fish migration.

EE2 and the Fish Brain: Age‐Dependent Impact of 17α‐Ethinylestradiol on Brain Cell Proliferation and Behavior in Sea Bass Larvae

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs), such as 17α‐ethinylestradiol (EE2), have raised concerns about their potential effects on aquatic organisms, particularly during early developmental stages. In this context, the study of behavioral disruption has gained considerable attention, as it may have consequences on individual fitness and ...

Ecotoxicological Assessment of Mercury in Fish From a Gold‐Mining‐Impacted Amazonian River: Biomonitoring and Human Health Risk

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Peixoto de Azevedo River, located in northern Mato Grosso, southern Brazilian Amazon, has a long history of artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM). This study evaluated total mercury (THg) concentrations in fish tissues to assess biomagnification and potential risks.

Field evaluation of artificial intelligence early warning for bird depredation at carp ponds

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
An artificial intelligence‐based early‐warning workflow for bird depredation at a commercial carp farm in Japan. Abstract Piscivorous birds such as the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) can cause substantial losses in pond aquaculture, yet continuous on‐site vigilance is difficult under labor shortages.

Compositional change in fish assemblages along the Andean piedmont - Llanos floodplain gradient of the río Portuguesa, Venezuela

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
The Llanos is an extensive area of savannas and floodplains in central and western Venezuela that encompasses a gradual elevation gradient from the río Orinoco to the foothills of the Andean piedmont. The río Portuguesa is one of the major rivers in this

Sentinels of environmental change: shifts in fish diversity through the lens of artisanal fishers [PDF]

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
River regulation has caused significant shifts in fish diversity, with severe impacts on small-scale artisanal fisheries, which depend on fishing resources for income, employment and food security.

Genome Expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in Basal Species or Liver Expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in Advanced Species, Two Different Strategies to Ensure Sufficient ZP Synthesis in Teleosts

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...
