Science of the Total Environment, 2019
Sugarcane is one of the main crops used around the world as a feedstock for the production of sucrose and biofuel. Prior to harvesting, sugarcane dry leaves are burned to facilitate manual cutting and enhance productivity.

Native Fish Conservation Areas: A Vision for Large-Scale Conservation of Native Fish Communities
Fisheries, 2011Abstract The status of freshwater fishes continues to decline despite substantial conservation efforts to reverse this trend and recover threatened and endangered aquatic species. Lack of success is partially due to working at smaller spatial scales and focusing on habitats and species that are already degraded.

Trophic niche overlap between native and non-native fishes
Hydrobiologia, 2014In Mexico, non-native species are established in virtually every lake and represent one of the most important factors in species diversity loss. An iconic example is Lake Patzcuaro, which used to provide one of the most abundant fisheries of native species among freshwater systems in Mexico. But in the last decades, the relative abundance of non-native

Rough waters for native Chinese fish
Science, 2015In the Policy Forum “China's aquaculture and the world's wild fisheries” (9 January, p. [133][1]), L. Cao et al. identify the increasing growth of aquaculture in China as potentially placing considerable pressure on global marine stocks.

Biological Invasions, 2008
The proliferation of non-native species in North American freshwater ecosystems is considered a primary threat to the integrity of native community structure. However, a general understanding of consistent and predictable impacts of non-native species on native freshwater diversity is limited, in part, because of a lack of broad-scale studies including

As stressed in chapter III, Tasmania possesses both an abundance of fresh water and a diversity of freshwater environments. Nevertheless, the native freshwater fish fauna is relatively small and it is also unbalanced in composition. There are about twenty-three species of native fish which are commonly found in fresh water or are dependent on it for ...

Increasing microhabitat complexity on seawalls can reduce fish predation on native oysters
Ecological Engineering: The Journal of Ecotechnology, 2017Increasingly, urbanised coastlines are being armoured by shoreline protection structures, such as seawalls. Seawalls typically lack the complex microhabitats and protective spaces of natural shorelines and consequently organisms that settle on them may ...

Red fish, blue fish, native fish, new fish: eDNA as a tool to monitor fish in estuarine systems
2022Environmental DNA (eDNA) is emerging as a potentially powerful tool to assess aquatic ecosystems, and to monitor fish assemblages. We conducted a pilot eDNA water sampling program at 5 Reserves within the National Estuarine Research Reserve System from temperate and tropical estuaries to better understand how eDNA data can support detection of fish ...

ABSTRACTAnthropogenic‐mediated invasions of non‐native species are leading to biodiversity loss in many trophic groups, with specific impacts on a wide range of ecosystem functions and services. However, the impacts of non‐native species on native species and ecosystem multifunctionality are not well understood, particularly due to the lack of long ...
