We synthesize a large body of literature involving peer-reviewed work, grey literature and
novel data analyses about the small-scale northern pike (Esox lucius) fishery in lagoon …

Acoustic telemetry (AT) has emerged as a valuable tool for monitoring aquatic animals in
both European inland and marine waters over the past two decades. The European …

To inform the management of wild fish populations, it is equally important to understand both
the ecological connectivity of habitat patches, apparent at annual and seasonal scales, and …

Home range size is a fundamental trait that can affect the probability of fish being harvested
and, at the same time, may be affected by fishing. The relationship between home range …

Involving all interest groups, often called stakeholders, is increasingly recognized as a key
part of sustainable natural resource management, promoting acceptability and compliance …

Accurate age estimates are crucial for assessing the life‐histories of fish and providing
management advice, but validation studies are rare for many species. We corroborated age …

In mobile animals, selection pressures resulting from spatio-temporally varying ecological
factors often drive adaptations in migration behavior and associated physiological …

Pike (Esox lucius) populations across the central and southern Baltic Sea have undergone
declines in recent decades. The underlying reasons are not fully understood but the loss of …

Home range size and metabolic rate of animals are theorized to scale in relation to body
mass with similar exponents. This expectation has only been indirectly tested using lab …

Predators have important functional roles in coastal ecosystems. In cases where such
species are locally depleted or extirpated, a proactive restoration strategy may include …
