Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract There is a growing body of literature that suggests riverine fish are some of the most threatened taxa on a global scale. Similarly, the literature suggests less‐altered tributaries may offer refugia for large‐river specialists. The greater Mississippi River basin, including the Missouri River system, has been subjected to anthropogenic ...

Atzavara, L', 2015 Despite covering only 0.8% of the Earth’s surface, freshwater biodiversity accounts for 9.5% of all described species. Aquatic macroinvertebrates, and in particular aquatic insects, are one of the most diverse faunal groups of fluvial ecosystems. Macroinvertebates are benthic invertebrates measuring more than 0.25 mm in size with a wide variety of ...

Short‐term performance responses of an intertidal fish to sedimentation and warming
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Climate change is altering coastal ecosystems by causing environmental fluctuations, such as increases in temperature and turbidity, which pose major implications for fish physiology and behaviour. Increases in temperature affect fish food intake, swimming capacity and oxygen delivery, while increases in turbidity can impair or enhance prey ...

Feasibility of restoring native oyster reefs in highly modified urban estuaries
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Urbanized estuaries are highly altered systems characterized by modified shorelines, degraded marine habitats, and abundant non‐native species. In South Australia's largest urbanized estuary, community‐based restoration initiatives aim to restore native flat oyster reefs (Ostrea angasi) lost over a century ago.
