Among the species in the family Salmonidae, those represented by the genera Salmo,
Salvelinus, and Oncorhynchus (subfamily Salmoninae) are the most studied. Here, various …

Current-mediated downstream dispersal by the early developmental stages of fish in rivers
is a common phenomenon. Knowledge of patterns and processes in the dispersal, or 'drift' …

Recent studies have increasingly demonstrated the widespread existence of spatio-
temporal variations in the abundance and distribution of species of freshwater fishes …

Despite their promise for simulating natural complexity, individual‐based models (IBMs) are
rarely used for ecological research or resource management. Few IBMs have been shown to …

Most larger water bodies worldwide are used for navigation, and the intensity of commercial
and recreational navigation is expected to further increase. Navigation profoundly affects …

The trophic ecology of many fish species in cold temperate lakes is often characterized by a
generalist or opportunist strategy. In this study, the diets of polytrophic brown trout in Loch …

Spatial and temporal hydraulic heterogeneity influence distributional patterns of species in
streams. Ecological theory suggests flexible habitat selection strategies are favored in such …

In freshwater fish, the transition from dependence on maternal yolk reserves to independent
foraging can be an early critical period, with survival during this stage having a strong …

Little information is available on governing factors of larval fish dispersal in natural river
systems. Therefore, we aimed to describe dispersal and retention of marked larval nase …

The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a species of Eurasian origin, but at has become naturalized
in many other parts of the world. It has an outstanding socio-economic importance, both in …
