Otoliths are calcified structures and the information contained within their chemistry or shape
can be used to infer life history events, migration patterns, and stock structure of a fish …

Winter is a challenging period for aquatic research—weather is uncomfortable, ice is
hazardous, equipment fails, and daylength is short. Consequently, until recently relatively …

The Great Lakes Acoustic Telemetry Observation System (GLATOS), organized in 2012,
aims to advance and improve conservation and management of Great Lakes fishes by …

Fish migration in large freshwater lacustrine systems such as the Laurentian Great Lakes is
not well understood. The walleye (Sander vitreus) is an economically and ecologically …

Anthropogenic stressors such as urban development, agricultural runoff, and riparian zone
degradation impair stream water quality and biodiversity. However, the intricate pathways …

In many cold climates, rain-on-snow (ROS) events are associated with severe snowmelt and
flooding. ROS events also rapidly deplete snowpacks, reducing the potential for subsurface …

Migratory fishes are natural wonders. For many people, the term migratory fish evokes
images of salmon audaciously jum** at waterfalls as they return to their own riverine …

Controlling invasive species is critical for conservation but can have unintended
consequences for native species and divert resources away from other efforts. This dilemma …

Otolith chemistry is an effective technique for evaluating fish environmental history, but its
utility in fisheries management has not been comprehensively examined. Thus, a review of …

Animal movements are influenced by the environment they inhabit and the need to
maximise fitness and minimise cost. As such, seasonal thermal cycles in temperate lakes …
