Context‐Dependent Effects of Beavers (Castor spp.) on Freshwater Pearl Mussels (Margaritifera margaritifera) in European Rivers 河狸对欧洲河流中的淡水珍珠贝 (Margaritifera margaritifera) 存在情境依赖性影响

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
The study explores how beavers (Castor spp.) affect endangered freshwater pearl mussels (Margaritifera margaritifera) in European rivers. Beaver dams can harm small, fragmented mussel populations by reducing flow, increasing sediment, and potentially limiting host fish movement, while larger populations may benefit from improved bed stability and ...

Agent-Based Modeling of the Bristol Bay Drift Gillnet Salmon Fishery

open access: yes, 2006
Alaska’s Bristol Bay sockeye salmon fishery is the world’s largest fishery for this species. Between 1980 and 2005, annual catches averaged 24 million fish, with an annual average ex-vessel value of US$165 million.

On the Economics of an Atlantic Salmon Recreational Fishery

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis includes four essays on the management of wild Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). The main focus is on the management of the recreational fishery; thus, the focus is on salmon in the rivers, where anglers buy fishing permits from landowners in ...

Transcriptional breakpoints as predictors of thermal thresholds in a climate‐impacted stenothermal fish

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The biogeography of ectotherms is greatly influenced by their thermal tolerance, which is expected to be tightly coupled to aerobic performance. However, preferred temperatures of ectotherms often deviate substantially from aerobic performance optima. This suggests that

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

Evidence of parental care as a newly identified reproductive isolating barrier

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Behavioural variation can contribute to reproductive isolation and can be an important driver of speciation. Here, we show that a previously undescribed mechanism, parental care, can function as a postzygotic reproductive isolating barrier when dysregulated in hybrids.
