Evaluating and Advancing the Use of Shore‐Based Observers for Scientific Sampling and Catch Verification in High‐Volume Fisheries

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 612-629, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Shore‐based observers are increasingly being used in place of at‐sea observers to monitor and sample commercial fisheries catch. However, few evaluations assess whether these programs meet their stated goals or how to optimize them, and industry data are rarely tested for accuracy despite serving as the foundation for catch accounting.

More Is Not Always Better: Selective Trait Filtering Governs Assembly Under Emerging Flow Intermittency

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The study examined how increasing flow intermittency affects macroinvertebrate community organisation in newly drying headwater streams. Results showed that drying selectively filters species and trait states, with resistance‐ and resilience‐related survival strategies responding differently to increasing intermittency.

Epidemiology of Leech Infestation in Livestock and Evaluation of Phytolacca dodecanda (Endod) for Aquatic Leech Control in Selected Districts of South, Central, and North Gondar Zones, Northwest Ethiopia

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The livestock industry in Ethiopia suffers greatly from parasites and parasitic diseases including leech infestation. Leech infestation is a serious disease of animals and occasionally humans, but it is usually ignored. A cross‐sectional study design was carried out from January 2022 to June 2022 to estimate the prevalence of leech infestation in ...

Fish predation cues induce drifting and emergence in an experimental stream mesocosm system

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue S2, Page S364-S376, December 2025.
Abstract Predator–prey interactions are important drivers of adaptation in aquatic communities, shaping the behavior of invertebrates with cascading effects on community dynamics. Behavioral responses, such as moving with the downstream current (drift) or altering the timing of emergence, are strategies that reduce the risk of predator encounters ...
