Empirical analyses of the length, weight, and condition of adult Atlantic salmon on return to the Scottish coast between 1963 and 2006 [PDF]
Sea age, size, and condition of adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) are prime determinants of individual, and hence population, productivity. To elucidate potential mechanisms, 151 000 records of salmon returning to six Scottish coastal sites over 44 ...

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

We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

The effects of environmental stress on the physiology of growth in rainbow trout, Salmo gairderi Richardson [PDF]
There is little doubt that both mammalian and teleost growth hormones can accelerate growth and increase food conversion efficiency in all commonly-reared species of salmonid fish.

Costs of Chronic Waterborne Zinc Exposure and the Consequences of Zinc Acclimation on the Gill/Zinc Interactions of Rainbow Trout in Hard and Soft Water [PDF]
Juvenile rainbow trout were exposed to zinc in both moderately hard water (hardness 5 120 mg CaCO3/L, pH = 8.0, Zn = 150 μg/L or 450 μg/L) and soft water (hardness = 20 mg CaCO3/L, pH = 7.2, Zn = 50 μg/L or 120 μg/L) for 30 d.

Abstract Recent approaches to fisheries research emphasize the importance of the coproduction of knowledge in building resilient and culturally mindful fisheries management frameworks. Despite widespread recognition of the need for Indigenous knowledge and historical reference points as baseline data, archaeological data are rarely included in ...

ABSTRACT Introductions of species outside their native range, such as pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, can serve as unplanned experiments that provide new insights into ecological adaptation. We synthesize available information on the understudied Great Lakes pink salmon invasion and highlight how this case can inform

Zebrafish as animal model for aquaculture nutrition research. [PDF]
The aquaculture industry continues to promote the diversification of ingredients used in aquafeed in order to achieve a more sustainable aquaculture production system. The evaluation of large numbers of diets in aquaculture species is costly and requires

Factors Influencing the Stocking of Juvenile Pikeperch (Sander lucioperca)
ABSTRACT Predator species of fish play crucial roles in ecosystem balance through top‐down control, a mechanism frequently exploited in biomanipulation to stock predator species. Juvenile pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) were stocked (n = 52,887) in spring 2023 and 2024 and autumn 2023 to compare stocking efficiency between Recirculation Aquaculture ...
