Annual variation in riverscape habitat use by a diadromous fish before oceanic migration

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Migratory animals often face high mortality risks during migration, with smaller individuals particularly vulnerable. This study reveals that smaller pre‐migrants of masu salmon (Oncorhynchus masou) stayed longer in different riverscape habitats (nursery and transitional), with variation between years, to reach large size prior to migration.

The Genomics Revolution in Nonmodel Species: Predictions vs. Reality for Salmonids

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing feasibility of whole‐genome sequencing has been highly anticipated, promising to transform our understanding of the biology of nonmodel species. Notably, dramatic cost reductions beginning around 2007 with the advent of high‐throughput sequencing inspired publications heralding the ‘genomics revolution’, with predictions about ...

The role of habitat in predator–prey dynamics with applications to restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 3, March 2025.
Habitat is a powerful force in ecosystems, and the quantity and quality of habitat can shape ecosystem structure and function. Among the many important roles that habitat plays is as a mediator of ecological interactions, including predator–prey dynamics.

Does wetland restoration create an ecological trap for migrating Brown trout smolts?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoring wetlands is often used by management to boost ecosystem services like improving downstream water quality, but it may create ecological traps for migrating salmonids by increasing migration time and predation rates, potentially compromising self‐sustaining populations.

Mesohabitat Evaluation Reveals Variable Abundances and Habitat Choice in Juvenile Atlantic Salmon Across Diverse Habitats in the Main Stem of a Large Sub‐Arctic River

open access: yesEcology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 34, Issue 3, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Large main stem rivers typically provide a variety of mesohabitat types, but their abundance, distribution and role in providing habitat for juvenile salmonids have rarely been analysed. The quantity of meso‐scale habitats and their juvenile Atlantic salmon abundance was surveyed in the large sub‐arctic River Teno in northernmost Fennoscandia.
