Water temperature and river discharge drive age‐dependent changes in brown trout (Salmo trutta) growth

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rivers and streams exhibit inherent variability in environmental conditions, particularly in water temperature and stream discharge. These factors can impact fish growth through both direct (i.e., physiological) and indirect (i.e., ecosystem productivity) mechanisms.

Benthic Macroinvertebrates Composition, Diversity and Distribution of Daberam Reservoir, Katsina State, Nigeria

UMYU Journal of Microbiology Research
Macrobenthic invertebrates are significantly considered to be bioindicators by providing a key concept in understanding the dynamics in aquatic conditions rather than chemical and microbiological data, which at least give short-term fluctuations. Recent

Comparison of Heavy Metals Accumulation Rate (Cd and Pb) in invertebrate and Fish (Alburnoides eichwaldii) in Tajan River, Mazandaran Province, Iran [PDF]

بوم‌شناسی آبزیان, 2019
This study was performed to determine the trends of heavy metals transfer (cadmium and lead) from water to macroinvertebrates and the fish species, Alburnoides eichwaldii in 5 stations in the Tajan River in autumn and spring.

Trophic niche overlap between native and non‐native fishes in central Anatolian lakes, Türkiye

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Anatolian region of Türkiye exhibits exceptionally high freshwater fish diversity and endemism and is increasingly exposed to the introduction of non‐native taxa. We examined the diet composition, prey selectivity and interspecific dietary overlap among eight native and five non‐native fish species across seven lakes in Central ...

Dive surveys and eDNA detect contrasting macroalgal community composition in Nova Scotia, Canada

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Morphological identification of macroalgae can be time‐consuming and species may be difficult to observe, collect, or identify, preventing detailed study on the distribution and ecology of many species. The use of eDNA in species surveillance and biodiversity assessments has gained considerable traction in studying macroalgae, as it provides ...

The impact of land use on stream macroinvertebrates: a bibliometric analysis for 2010–2021

, 2023
Changes in stream biodiversity are now mainly driven by land-use development. However, a literature review on the impact of land use on stream macroinvertebrates is lacking, especially a scientometric review.

Aquatic Invertebrates as Unlikely Vectors of Buruli Ulcer Disease

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
Buruli ulcer is a necrotizing skin disease caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans and associated with exposure to aquatic habitats. To assess possible transmission of M. ulcerans by aquatic biting insects, we conducted a field examination of biting water bugs (

Maximal Swimming Speed Explains Differences in Habitat Use Among Invasive Ponto‐Caspian Dikerogammarus Species (Crustacea, Amphipoda)

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
The three invasive Ponto‐Caspian Dikerogammarus species (D. bispinosus, D. haemobaphes, and D. villosus) show niche differentiation along the current velocity gradient. In the present study, we experimentally measured their maximal swimming speeds to test whether they coincide with their tolerances for currents.

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 ...
