Modelling relationships between juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) density and landscape characteristics: Integration of electrofishing data and spatial data to assess population status

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) are ecologically and economically important, but like many salmonids their populations are declining. Trout exhibit a high level of phenotypic plasticity, ranging from freshwater residency to anadromy. This complexity causes problems for assessment and constrains application of adult catch‐based assessment methods

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Ecological energetics of an imperilled fish: Physiological metrics, experimental protocols and implications for population recovery

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Insights about fish physiology can be useful for population management, but collecting ecologically relevant data can be challenging, especially for imperilled and sensitive species. With the goal of identifying ecologically relevant physiological metrics, we conducted a range of experiments to characterize the metabolism, food consumption ...

Climate‐driven niche filtering limits post‐dispersal establishment and genomic introgression in a riverine shrub

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Integrated biogeographic analysis and macroecological insights reveal that habitat differences drive genetic differentiation Debregeasia orientalis C. J. Chen, a dominant riparian shrub distributed across multiple biodiversity hotspots, and different lineages vary greatly in adaptability to future climate.

Biogeochemical processes in forest riparian zones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The area of interaction between terrestrial and aquatic environments, i.e. the riparian zone (RZ), has long been recognized as an important landscape feature from both scientific and management perspectives. Surface water quality is to a great extent regulated by substances exported from RZs.

Fish assemblage at a newly restored tidal wetland reflects surrounding waterways in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We studied the response of fish assemblages, water quality, and plankton following the completion of 700 acres of a 1184‐acre tidal restoration project (Dutch Slough Tidal Restoration; DSTR) in a system degraded by water diversions, channelization, non‐native species, and wetland loss.

Rapid responses of marsh birds to large‐scale tidal wetland restoration in California's Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Tidal wetland restoration is widely used to recover ecosystem function in modified estuaries, yet uncertainty remains about how quickly wildlife communities respond. Early trajectories are central to evaluating restoration success, guiding adaptive management, and building ecosystem resilience in engineered landscapes. Marsh birds

Ground mammal colonization of restored wildlife corridors in the tropical uplands of north‐eastern Australia

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Since European settlement, Australia's Wet Tropics bioregion has been extensively cleared, leaving a mosaic of rainforest fragments, crops, pastures, orchards, and human settlement. Fragment isolation leads to declines in faunal diversity and genetic variability, effects potentially exacerbated by climate change. Restoring habitat

Evolution of ecological indicators in the assessment of restoration of mining‐degraded riparian forests: a global bibliometric analysis (1990–2024)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The restoration of mining‐degraded riparian forests faces challenges due to structural, compositional, and functional impacts on these ecosystems. The demand for effective monitoring requires an understanding of how ecological indicators have been applied to assess post‐mining restoration success.
