A new acoustic telemetry tag that identifies carrier mortality by monitoring activity level
Abstract We present a new acoustic telemetry tag capable of detecting whether its carrier stops moving for long enough to presume the organism has died, and of reporting the time elapsed since movement ceased. The tag uses existing environmental sensor technology together with an algorithm with user‐specifiable thresholds, and importantly, can separate

Current status of aquatic biological resources in the middle and lower parts of the Amur River basin, including Lake Khanka and the Amursky Liman, is assessed. Generally high abundance of the water organisms is noted, but a downward trend is revealed. In

ABSTRACT Aquatic ecosystems have been in an alarming state of decline for decades. In particular, estuarine ecosystems have experienced long‐term declines in fish diversity due to factors such as habitat degradation, pollution and altered hydrology. Monitoring these systems is often limited by the difficulty and cost of conventional survey methods.

Conservation of whales, considered as umbrella species in marine environments, requires to be able to understand their relationships with ecosystem components such as prey species, including pelagic fish. However, studying such relationships in nature is

ABSTRACT Seasonal changes in freshwater ecosystems influence fish resource use through both environmental and biological factors, but year‐round studies that include ice‐covered months have been lacking. We investigated seasonal variation in the stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) using year‐round monthly sampling of the fish ...

We measured a positive linear relationship between eDNA concentration and abundance for larval Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) with N = 1 larva exceeding the limit of detection for the novel qPCR assay. Field experiments quantified the probability of detection for eDNA sampling methods at known abundances and distances from source. ABSTRACT Rare

Fishing for Smelt, Osmerus eperlanus (Linnaeus, 1758) A traditional food fish – possible cuisine in postmodern Sweden? [PDF]
For the rural population in Sweden, fishing in lakes and rivers was of great importance until recently. Many fish species served as food or animal fodder, or were used to make glue and other useful products.

A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...
