A Method to Implement Natural Flow Regimes for Regulated Rivers

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Rivers throughout the world have been dammed for flood control, irrigation, hydropower, and water storage for centuries. Dams service the economic and development needs of societies, but degrade the ecology of rivers. To conserve diminishing aquatic species and their habitats, methods are needed to help managers implement flow releases with ...

Evaluating a vertical slot fishway in the recolonization of upstream stretch of River Mondego that was not available to sea lamprey

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
In 2011, the construction of a vertical slot fishway at the Açude-Ponte dam in Coimbra, has allowed the migration of adult sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus L.) to important upstream spawning areas that were unreachable for the last 30 years.

The Return of \u3ci\u3eHexagenia\u3c/i\u3e (Ephemeroptera: Ephemeridae) to the Lower Fox River, Wisconsin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Burrowing mayflies (Hexagenia bilineata) were collected in 1991 in the vicinity of the DePere dam on the Fox River, Brown County, Wisconsin. Because Hexagenia mayflies are indicators of good water quality, their emergence from the Fox River is evidence ...

Integrating Sr isotopes, microchemistry, and genetics to reconstruct Salmonidae species and life history

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue S2, Page S104-S129, May 2026.
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 Despite widespread recognition of the need for Indigenous knowledge and historical reference points as baseline data, archaeological data are rarely included in ...

Dams and Introduced Species Drive Patterns of Environmental Adaptation in an Iconic but Imperiled Coldwater Fish (Brook Trout, Salvelinus fontinalis)

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater biodiversity is being disproportionately negatively impacted by anthropogenic stressors including climate change, partly due to limited opportunities to seek more favorable conditions compared to marine and terrestrial species. Management plans that maintain locally adapted genotypes, and integrate active management interventions ...

The evolution and variety of RFamide-type neuropeptides: insights from deuterostomian invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Five families of neuropeptides that have a C-terminal RFamide motif have been identified in vertebrates: (1) gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), (2) neuropeptide FF (NPFF), (3) pyroglutamylated RFamide peptide (QRFP), (4) prolactin-releasing peptide (

Molecular insights into electroreceptor ribbon synapses from differential gene expression in sturgeon lateral line organs

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 5, Page 784-805, May 2026.
The expression of various genes involved in synapse development, stability and/or function was studied in developing mechanosensory neuromasts and electrosensory ampullary organs in sterlet sturgeon. Most were shared, including Slc17a8, Slc1a3 and Nrxn3, but Cbln18 was neuromast‐restricted and Tulp1 was ampullary organ‐restricted.

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2011
The hypothalamic-pituitary system is considered to be a vertebrate innovation and seminal event that emerged prior to or during the differentiation of the ancestral agnathans.
