An effective method for the recapture of escaped farmed salmon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The search for effective strategies to prevent and mitigate accidental releases of aquaculture fishes is on-going. To test a new recapture strategy and evaluate the individual dispersal behaviour of escaped farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L.

Climate shocks, coping strategies, and household resilience: Evidence from a three‐wave panel in Malawi

open access: yesContemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate shocks threaten rural livelihoods in Malawi, yet households adopt diverse coping strategies to mitigate welfare losses. Using three‐wave Living Standards Measurement Study–Integrated Surveys on Agriculture panel data (2013–2019) and household fixed‐effects models, this study examines how climate shocks affect food security and ...

Comparison of the swimming performance of farmed and wild gilthead sea bream, Sparus aurata

open access: yes, 2007
Farmed gilthead sea bream, Sparus aurata, frequently escape from the sea cages and interact with wild populations. The impact of these interactions on the wild populations will depend, in part, on differences in performance of the bream.

Greater sage‐grouse dynamics are influenced by winter temperature rather than indices of grazing, drought, and breeding season weather in a northern Great Plains population

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We evaluated the impacts of grazing, climatic variability, and vegetation productivity on the population dynamics of a northern Great Plains greater sage‐grouse population. We found winter temperature influenced annual population growth rates, but did not detect influences of drought, breeding season weather, vegetation productivity or short‐term ...

Post-release and pre-spawning behaviour of simulated escaped adult rainbow trout Oncorhynhus mykiss in Lake ovre Fryken, Sweden

open access: yes, 2009
Using radio telemetry, the present study simulated the escape of 48 adult rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss from a net-cage fish farm in the Lake ovre Fryken, Sweden. The post-release dispersal of O. mykiss was fast, showed long-range dispersal behaviour,

Decoding Fish Origins: How Metals and Metabolites Differentiate Wild, Farmed, and Escaped Specimens

open access: yes
The increasing frequency of fish escapes from aquaculture facilities poses ecological, economic, and traceability challenges. This study investigates the potential of heavy metals, fatty acid profiles, and NMR-based metabolomics to distinguish between wild, cultured, and escaped individuals of three Mediterranean fish species: Sparus aurata (gilthead ...

Animal Teachers: Nonhuman Pedagogy and the Question of Deceit

open access: yesEducational Theory, EarlyView.
Abstract Animals as “teachers” of human children and adults is a recurring theme in children's literature, in anthropological accounts of “feral children,” as well as in contemporary practices of animal‐assisted pedagogy, philosophical research, wildlife documentaries, and popular culture.

Plant Domestication Affects the Oviposition Behavior and Performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a Parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry

Inducible tomato defences persist in detached leaves, despite differential plant variety and gene‐dependent expression

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Short‐ and long‐term expression of PPO‐D, PI‐IIc and PR‐1a were assessed in intact plants and detached tomato leaves of two varieties infested with Tetranhycus urticae. Tomato defences were induced in both intact and detached leaves, but the induction levels varied with plant variety and gene assessed.

The fate of farmed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) released from commercial aquaculture operations in Lake Huron

open access: yes, 2011
The fate of farmed fish after escape is poorly understood. The extent to which these fish might impact freshwater ecosystems is dependent upon their survival and distribution in the wild.
