Evaluating Movements of Co‐Occurring Silver and Bighead Carp in a Small Missouri River Tributary
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Silver Carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and Bighead Carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis commonly inhabit small tributaries of mainstem rivers. However, dynamic environmental conditions within these systems may influence their movement patterns differently than in larger rivers, potentially leading to important implications regarding their range ...

Avoiding the ‘One‐Size‐Fits‐All’ Trap in Policy‐Based Monitoring
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Policy‐based monitoring programmes often fail to yield the information required to assess and improve policies and plans. A dominant cause of this problem is the ‘one‐size‐fits‐all’ (OSFA) trap—a failure to recognise that several, complementary types of monitoring are required to support effective policy.
