People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Tree‐planting initiatives are a crucial part of international sustainability and climate action efforts. Yet, many of these initiatives fail to achieve their long‐term sustainability and climate goals. The role of community value is an often‐overlooked factor in promoting the success of new tree plantings.

Management applications of genetic structure of anadromous sturgeon populations in the Lower Danube River (LDR), Romania [PDF]
Scientific Annals of the Danube Delta Institute, 2013 During the last decades, the over-exploitation of sturgeon stocks for caviar production simultaneously with severe habitat deteriorations has led to drastic declines in the natural populations of the Danube River. As a result of (i) decrease of sturgeon

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rivers of the northern Great Plains have lacked long‐term, continuous water temperature assessments, and there is limited information on thermal regimes of these systems and factors driving water temperature. We collected and assembled 2001–2022 water temperature data from 18 sites on four reaches of three rivers that differ in anthropogenic ...

Use of navigation channels by Lake Sturgeon: Does channelization increase vulnerability of fish to ship strikes? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Channelization for navigation and flood control has altered the hydrology and bathymetry of many large rivers with unknown consequences for fish species that undergo riverine migrations.

Dam Submergence Flows: An Environmental Flow Prescription Designed to Aid Migratory Fish Passage
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As part of a holistic ecosystem‐focused set of unified flow prescriptions, natural spring flood events were enhanced with releases from an upstream reservoir on the Cape Fear River in North Carolina (USA) to submerge a series of low‐use, low‐head lock‐and‐dam structures for anadromous fish to move upstream.

Efficiency of gillnets with 170mm mesh size in reduction of immature Persian sturgeon, Acipenser persicus, catch [PDF]
, 2012 This study was carried out in Turkmen fishing station to examine suitable mesh size of gill nets for Persian sturgeon, Acipenser persicus, to decrease possibility of catching immature specimens and increase catch likelihood for larger fish.

The effects of endosulfan on P450 1A gene expression, antioxidant enzymes activity and histopathological alterations in liver of Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus Borodin, 1987) [PDF]
, 2016 The effects of 14 days exposure to sublethal concentrations of endosulfan (10 and 40 μg L−1) were investigated in mRNA- P450 1A expression, antioxidant enzymes (SOD and CAT) activity and histopathological alterations of Persian sturgeon (Acipenser ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hydroelectric dams and their turbine infrastructure threaten out‐migrating anguillid eels en route to marine spawning grounds. For decades, invested parties have attempted to guide eels away from turbines and toward safe passage routes. A subset of this work (hereafter behavioral guidance) has involved exploiting sensory biology (e.g., sight ...
