River damming has brought great benefits to flood mitigation, energy and food production,
and will continue to play a significant role in global energy supply, particularly in Asia, Africa …

Water temperatures control life histories and diversity of aquatic species. Hydropower
regulation, particularly in high head systems, alters natural water temperature regimes …

Temperate lakes may contain both coolwater fish species such as walleye (Sander vitreus)
and warmwater fish species such as largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides). Recent …

Despite widespread biodiversity losses, an understanding of how most taxa will respond to
future climate change is lacking. Here we integrate genomics and environmental modelling …

Abstract Changes in ocean water temperature associated with global climate change are
bound to enormously affect fish populations, with potential major economic consequences in …

The response of communities to climate extremes can be quite variable. Much of this
variation has been attributed to differences in community‐specific functional trait diversity, as …

We classified walleye (Sander vitreus) recruitment with 81% accuracy (recruitment success
and failure predicted correctly in 84% and 78% of lake-years, respectively) using a random …

Invasive species represent a threat to aquatic ecosystems globally; however, impacts can be
heterogenous across systems. Documented impacts of invasive zebra mussels (Dreissena …

Forensic entomology can be useful to the veterinary professional in cases of animal cruelty.
A main application of forensic entomology is to determine the minimum postmortem interval …

In most animals, sex determination occurs at conception, when sex chromosomes are
segregated following Mendelian laws. However, in multiple reptiles and fishes, this genetic …
