Narratives of ‘home landscapes’ guide stewardship practices among Swedish forest owners

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Production forests play an important role in addressing many of our current sustainability challenges. Therefore, how these forests are managed and what motivates the people who are managing them are important for sustainability. 47 per cent of forests in Europe are privately owned.

What is ‘relational thinking’, and how does it manifest in research?

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People and Nature is a ‘journal of relational thinking’. This editorial explores what relational thinking can mean and how it might be operationalized in the context of humans and the environment. Relational thinking may seem intuitive because it recognizes the world's inherent interconnectedness. However, the question of how to operationalize

Fish Bulletin No. 86. The Commercial Fish Catch of California For the Year 1950 with A Description of Methods Used in Collecting and Compiling the Statistics

, 1952
The purpose of this bulletin is to present with the current statistics a record of the changes that have been made in the forms and in the routine of collecting and processing the statistics of California's fish catch. While these changes in themselves are often trivial, they are nonetheless of vital importance in using and interpreting the past ...

River‐Scale Evaluation of a Floating LED Light Array for Behavioral Guidance of American Eel

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exploiting the sensory physiology of migratory fishes to guide them away from hazards like hydroelectric turbines is of interest to regulatory agencies and hydropower operators to achieve conservation and management goals. Here we describe a river‐scale experiment where out‐migrating adult American eel (Anguilla rostrata) were tracked ...

Search and Passage Are Decoupled for Migrating Trout Kelts at Multi‐Exit Dam

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longitudinal and lateral river connectivity have been drastically reduced over time, with hydropower development as a major driver of fragmentation. While fishways are widely implemented to support upstream migration, downstream passage remains a major challenge.

Reconstructing Long‐Term Historical Hydrologic Alteration to Support Environmental Flows in Texas

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding and quantifying hydrologic alteration is essential for effective watershed management and ecological conservation. This study developed a modeling framework to predict reference hydrology and assess and model hydrologic alteration across Texas using publicly available geospatial datasets.

Fish Bulletin No. 24. An Analysis of the Catch Statistics of the Striped Bass (Roccus lineatus) Fishery of California

, 1930
In order that the owners of a fishery or any other natural resource may derive the greatest benefit from that resource, it must be utilized to the fullest possible extent. A policy of unwarranted restriction or miserly hoarding does not give the maximum benefit to the owners, since they then are deprived of their legitimate profits.

The Return of the Allis Shad (Alosa alosa) to the Lower Navigable Reaches of the Seine: Locks Play a Role

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In France, it is estimated that shads (Alosa spp.) have lost 69% of their historical range, mainly due to disrupted river connectivity. After an absence of one century, signs of their return in the Seine River have been recorded over the past two decades: adult and juvenile specimens have been caught by anglers or recorded at video‐counting ...

Effects of Sediment‐Control Operations on Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities in Dam Reservoirs

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sediments are avoided in many river and dam managements because of their adverse effects on water usage and flood control. Recently, sedimentation control measures, including sluicing, have been employed to manage sediments in river channels and restore communities in dammed rivers.

A Functional Flows Framework for the Terminal Great Salt Lake Basin: Can We Have Our Lake and Drink It Too?

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terminal basins provide unique aquatic environments that are often highly sensitive to streamflow contributions, making them a focal point for environmental water management. However, the water needs for terminal lake, wetland, and river ecosystems, and how they relate, remain a fundamental knowledge gap that constrains our ability to ...
