Phenotypic variation in otolith shape of American shad across eastern North American rivers [PDF]
Scientific ReportsOtolith shape analysis has been widely applied to study population structure and environmental influences in various fish species. However, research on American shad (Alosa sapidissima) otolith morphology remains scarce, despite its potential to provide ...

Investigating otolith mass asymmetry in six benthic and pelagic fish species (Actinopterygii) from the Gulf of Tunis [PDF]
Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2021 Otolith mass asymmetry can significantly affect the vestibular system functionalities; usually, the X values of mass asymmetry vary between −0.2 and + 0.2 (−0.2 < X < + 0.2). These values can change during a fish life and therefore they are

Microsystems & Nanoengineering, 2021 Detecting low-frequency underwater acoustic signals can be a challenge for marine applications. Inspired by the notably strong response of the auditory organs of pectis jellyfish to ultralow frequencies, a kind of otolith-inspired vector hydrophone (OVH)

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

Within-otolith variability in chemical fingerprints: implications for sampling designs and possible environmental interpretation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Largely used as a natural biological tag in studies of dispersal/connectivity of fish, otolith elemental fingerprinting is usually analyzed by laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS).

Seeking the True Time: Exploring Otolith Chemistry as an Age-Determination Tool.
Journal of Fish Biology, 2020 Fish otoliths' chronometric properties make them useful for age and growth rate estimation in fisheries management. For the Eastern Baltic Sea cod stock (Gadus morhua), unclear seasonal growth zones in otoliths have resulted in unreliable age and growth ...
