Freshwater fish assemblages in Cyprus with emphasis on the effects of dams [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2012
Background. The distribution of freshwater fishes in Cyprus is poorly known. The island is particularly interesting because of its biogeographical isolation and the long-term influence of humans on the biota, especially due to the recent damming of many ...

The consequences of balanced harvesting of fish communities [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2014
Balanced harvesting, where species or individuals are exploited in accordance with their productivity, has been proposed as a way to minimize the effects of fishing on marine fish communities and ecosystems. This calls for a thorough examination of the consequences balanced harvesting has on fish community structure and yield.

Biological diversity of fish communities : pattern and process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
For over 150 years, ecologists have been striving to explain fundamental patterns of biological diversity, such as the observation that communities invariably consist of common and rare species, and to unravel the processes that underpin these patterns ...

Ecology of sound communication in fishes [PDF]

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, 2019
AbstractFishes communicate acoustically under ecological constraints which may modify or hinder signal transmission and detection and may also be risky. This makes it important to know if and to what degree fishes can modify acoustic signalling when key ecological factors—predation pressure, noise and ambient temperature—vary.
