Acoustic telemetry studies have frequently prioritized linear configurations of hydrophone
receivers, such as perpendicular from shorelines or across rivers, to detect the presence of …

Animal metabolic rate is variable and may be affected by endogenous and exogenous
factors, but such relationships remain poorly understood in many primitive fishes, including …

With the continuous development of hydropower on a global scale, stranding of freshwater
fishes is of growing concern, and an understanding of the mechanisms and variables …

Effective management of freshwater fish habitat is essential to supporting healthy aquatic
ecosystems and sustainable fisheries. In Canada, recent changes to the Fisheries Act …

Common carp feeding and spawning behaviours negatively impact the functioning of marsh
ecosystems. In the Netley-Libau Marsh, situated on the southern end of Lake Winnipeg, …

Understanding relationships between freshwater fishes and habitat is critical for effective
fisheries and habitat management. Habitat suitability indices (HSI) are commonly used to …

RNA sequencing is an effective approach for studying aquatic species yielding both
physiological and genomic data. However, its population genetic applications are not well‐…

We introduce wavelet analysis, an alternate signal processing method to Fourier analysis,
to provide variables from scale morphology that discriminate among different spawning …

The determination if fish movement of potadromous species is impeded in a river system is
often difficult, particularly when timing and extent of movements are unknown. Furthermore, …

Differences in genomic architecture between populations, such as chromosomal inversions,
may play an important role in facilitating adaptation despite opportunities for gene flow. One …
