Relationships among tissues, biofluids, and otolith selenium concentrations in wild female burbot (Lota lota)

open access: yesIntegrated 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

Interim progress report on a study of the utility of data obtainable from otoliths to management of Humpback Chub (Gila cypha) in the Grand Canyon [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Daily growth increments of otoliths of fishes have been useful in many fishery applications since they have been demonstrated to provide a precise method of ageing individuals and reconstructing individual growth and, possibly, movement or habitat ...

Precise age estimation from different ageing structures in the striped snakehead, Channa striata (Bloch,1793), collected from the river Ganga

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
In Channa striata (N=156; TL=17-60cm) sampled from the river Ganga, the annuli laid on different ageing structures such as otoliths (whole and sectioned), scales, opercular bone and vertebrae were observed for age estimation.

Inner ear morphology in the Atlantic molly Poecilia mexicana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fishes show an amazing diversity in hearing abilities, inner ear structures, and otolith morphology. Inner ear morphology, however, has not yet been investigated in detail in any member of the diverse order Cyprinodontiformes.

First paleoproteome study of fossil fish otoliths and the pristine preservation of the biomineral crystal host

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Otoliths are calcium carbonate components of the stato-acoustical organ responsible for hearing and maintenance of the body balance in teleost fish. During their formation, control over, e.g., morphology and carbonate polymorph is influenced by complex ...

Listening In on the Past: What Can Otolith δ18O Values Really Tell Us about the Environmental History of Fishes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Oxygen isotope ratios from fish otoliths are used to discriminate marine stocks and reconstruct past climate, assuming that variations in otolith δ18O values closely reflect differences in temperature history of fish when accounting for salinity induced ...

Age, growth, and reproduction of dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) caught off the coast of North Carolina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Age, growth, and reproductive data were obtained from dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus, size range: 89 to 1451 mm fork length [FL]) collected between May 2002 and May 2004 off North Carolina.

Vestibular Testing—New Physiological Results for the Optimization of Clinical VEMP Stimuli

open access: yesAudiology Research, 2023
Both auditory and vestibular primary afferent neurons can be activated by sound and vibration. This review relates the differences between them to the different receptor/synaptic mechanisms of the two systems, as shown by indicators of peripheral ...
