How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

A Multi‐Method Approach to Assessing Barrier Effectiveness in Preventing the Spread of Invasive Signal Crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus)

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 8, Page 1691-1704, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Relieving barriers and increasing free flowing rivers is a global imperative to restore habitat connectivity for migratory fish stocks. While reducing river fragmentation will certainly improve biodiversity, the spread of non‐native species throughout a river system may be facilitated as an inadvertent outcome.

Signal Crayfish in Lake Saimaa Could be Maladapted to the Local Conditions Due to Aphanomyces astaci Infection: A Seven-Year Study [Elektronisk resurs]

, 2016
We conducted a seven-year survey (years 2009 to 2015) of the Lake Saimaa signal crayfish population. Lake Saimaa is the largest single waterbody in Finland, with a productive fishery and crayfishery.

Successful translocation of an imperiled amphibian following targeted habitat restoration efforts

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Recovery strategies have increasingly called for the use of conservation translocations to overcome barriers to natural recolonization of suitable habitat to reverse population declines. The critically imperiled Reticulated Flatwoods Salamander (Ambystoma bishopi) has experienced severe range contractions and local extirpations across most of ...

Site Fidelity, Depth Preference and Vertical Movement Patterns of Lentic and Lotic European Catfish Silurus glanis

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1031-1043, October 2026.
ABSTRACT To study variables that may trigger the dispersion of the currently expanding European catfish in its native distribution limits, 42 individuals were captured from Upper Lake Constance (lentic) and 42 from two streaming tributaries (lotic), fitted with pressure and temperature loggers, and released at the site of capture (control: lotic or ...

Taxonomy‐Independent eDNA Approaches in Groundwaters: A Prospective Tool for Improved Ecological Assessments

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundwater continues to be managed predominantly as an abiotic resource for human use, a paradigm that overlooks the biological communities responsible for many indispensable ecosystem services and ultimately the integrity of the global water cycle.

BIOECONOMIC MANAGEMENT OF RED SWAMP CRAYFISH (PROCAMBARUS CLARKII) IN THE PRESENCE OF ENVIRONMENTAL EXTERNALITIES [PDF]

Red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) is a valuable renewable resource which creates significant negative externalities to its environment. Crayfish can cause severe crop damage by burrowing in fields and using irrigation systems to spread.
