Hydrological variability is a key factor in structuring biotic and abiotic processes in river
ecosystems and is of particular importance to fish populations. We used 171 hydrological …

Freshwater rivers have been substantially altered by development and flow regulation.
Altered hydrological regimes have affected a range of biota, but impacts are often most …

Higher than average ambient water temperature in the first year of life may be responsible
for strong cohorts of adult cyprinid fish. Whilst temperature explains much of the variation in …

The large‐scale degradation of riparian ecotones and of the connectivity between rivers and
their floodplains has resulted in a drastic decline of rheophilic fish populations in European …

Predatory fish species play a key role in aquatic ecosystems by exerting top‐down control
on the food web. Also, their intra‐guild trophic interactions (ie competition) are crucial for the …

Out of 52 chub Leuciscus cephalus tagged with internal radio‐transmitters, 46 migrated to
spawning grounds in the River Spree, Germany. All chub started their first spawning …

Hydrological variability is considered a major structuring factor for biotic and abiotic
processes in freshwater ecosystems and is of particular importance to fish communities. We …

In order to study the responses of wild fish to environmental contaminations, different sites
(two references and three contaminated) were sampled across the Walloon hydrographical …

Fish living in highly variable and unpredictable environments need to possess life-history
strategies that enable them to survive environmental extremes such as floods and drought …

Stocking of piscivores in shallow, eutrophicated lakes to reduce cyprinid densities is a
common approach in lake restorations. Young‐of‐the‐year (YOY) pike Esox lucius are …
