Brown trout growth as related to landscape and local factors in Minnesota streams
Published on January 5, 2016
The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of drainage area on brown trout growth relative to the effects of local factors to equip managers with strategies for increasing the abundance of large individuals in southeast Minnesota streams. -
Otolith microchemistry reveals natal origins of walleyes in Missouri River reservoirs
Published on January 2, 2016
Our research demonstrates the utility of otolith microchemistry for measuring habitat- and site-specific natal contributions and informs Walleye management in Missouri River reservoirs. -
Effects of historic flooding on fishes and aquatic habitats in a Missouri River delta
Published on January 2, 2016
The goal of this study was to examine impacts of an historic flood in the Missouri River basin in 2011 on fishes and aquatic habitats in the Lewis & Clark Delta, South Dakota-Nebraska, USA. -
Synthesis of ecology and human dimensions for predictive management of bighead and silver carp in the United States
Published on January 2, 2016
We illustrate predictive management in the Upper Mississippi River System and suggest resource managers integrate predictive models, containment paradigms, and human dimensions to design effective, socially acceptable management strategies. -

Trophy northern pike: the value of experimentation and public engagement
Published on January 2, 2016
Northern pike (Esox lucius) are ecologically and socioeconomically important throughout Canada and the northern United States. -
Using otolith microchemistry to classify yellow perch as stocked or naturally produced
Published on January 2, 2016
Stocking eyed-eggs offers substantial cost savings compared to stocking fry and fingerlings; thus, there is a need for additional approaches to be able to classify fish as stocked or naturally produced. -
How to navigate fisheries education and employment
Published on January 2, 2016
A group of AFS students and young professionals from the Student Subsection of the Education Section schooled together to create a series of "How to..." documents to help our cohorts navigate the many steps of professional development in fisheries. -
Projected impacts of climate change on stream salmonids with implications for resilience-based management
Published on January 2, 2016
Our study promotes resilience-based salmonid management by providing a methodology for stream temperature and thermal habitat suitability prediction. -
WATER INTERNATIONAL -- Telecoupling in urban water systems: an examination of Beijing's imported water supply
Published on December 3, 2015
We apply the new telecoupling framework to the water-stressed megacity of Beijing’s imported water supply. -
Evolution of tourism in a flagship protected area of China
Published on October 7, 2015
This research applied the Tourism Area Life Cycle (TALC) model to illustrate and analyze the 30-year evolution of tourism in Wolong Nature Reserve. -

Divergent reaction of fish metrics to human pressures in fish assemblage types in Europe
Published on September 25, 2015
It is of primary importance to understand the comparative sensitivity and efficiency of fish-based indicators of water quality for detecting human-induced degradation of river ecosystems. -
Multiple human pressures and their spatial patterns in European running waters
Published on September 25, 2015
This study represents the first high-resolution data analysis of human pressures at the European scale, where important pressure criteria for 9330 sampling sites in 14 European countries were analysed. -
Pressure-specific and multiple pressure response of fish assemblages in European running waters
Published on September 25, 2015
Results contribute to the better understanding of fish assemblage response to human pressures at a pan-European scale. -
Comparison of human pressures and fish assemblages in the salmonid and cyprinid streams of the southern Caspian Sea basin
Published on September 25, 2015
Our analysis showed that the most dominating human pressure in both zones was land use followed by water quality and morphological pressures especially in salmonid streams and hydrological and morphological pressures in cyprinid streams. -
Cumulative effects of land use on fish metrics in different types of running waters in Austria
Published on September 25, 2015
Beyond correlative analysis, we investigated which land-use category had the strongest effect on fish, whether metrics of functional fish guilds reacted differently, whether there were cumulative effects of land-use categories.
