Prospects of multipurpose biomonitoring for fisheries assessment based on environmental nucleic acids

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Methods using environmental nucleic acids have become highly effective for monitoring aquatic biodiversity, with an array of suitable use cases, including metrics for fisheries assessment. Traditional methods for assessing fish populations often rely on invasive techniques with limited spatial and temporal coverage.

Resource use by threatened, native Bull Trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in the presence of two non‐native salmonids

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction of non‐native species contributes to the global decline of freshwater fishes by disrupting the diet and resources of native species through competition. Despite the potential for non‐native trout (Family: Salmonidae) to compete with native trout, non‐native trout species have been widely introduced worldwide to support ...

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

Investigating the efficacy of tidal wetland restoration in enhancing aquatic food web resources for native fishes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...

Soil remineralization with silicate rock powder: nutrient effects on plant quality and ungulate foraging

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Silicate rock powder (SRP), a slow‐release mineral additive, is increasingly used as a potential mitigation measure against soil acidification in natural areas. SRP addition has led to a higher soil base saturation and small increases in soil nutrient availability.

Community Health Workers' Multiple Understandings of Schistosomiasis Transmission Pathways: Exploring Contextual Factors in Côte d'Ivoire, Kenya and Uganda

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Schistosomiasis remains a public health concern in sub‐Saharan Africa, affecting over 250 million people. In endemic settings, schistosomiasis transmission is not always understood exclusively in biomedical terms. Community health workers (CHWs) contribute to schistosomiasis control through mass drug administration and health ...
