A systematic review of indicators and methods used to assess coastal to offshore marine ecosystems in the western Canadian Arctic
Integration and coordination among monitoring programs are needed to better assess the impacts of climate change on Arctic marine ecosystems. The use...
-
Local environmental conditions structured discrete fish assemblages in Arctic lagoons
Rapid changes in sea ice extent and changes in freshwater inputs from land are rapidly changing the nature of Arctic estuarine ecosystems. In the...

Marine diets of anadromous Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) in Svalbard, Norway
During summer, native anadromous Arctic char ( Salvelinus alpinus ) and the alien species pink salmon ( Oncorhynchus gorbuscha ) now coexist in marine...

Entropy and Efficiency of Growth in Marine Fish Species of the Arctic
AbstractThe mechanisms of the energy exchange processes in fish inhabiting high-latitude regions of Arctic were investigated on the basis of our...

Varying heat tolerance among Arctic nearshore fishes
Adapted to life in cold, polar waters, might Arctic fishes be ill equipped to deal with the rising temperatures expected from global climate change?...
-
Contrasting intra-individual variation in size-based trophic and habitat shifts for two coastal Arctic fish species
Within and among species variation in trophic and habitat shifts with body size can indicate the potential adaptive capacity of species to ecosystem...

Environmental drivers of eukaryotic plankton and fish biodiversity in an Arctic fjord
Arctic fjords are experiencing rapid environmental shifts due to climate change, which may have significant impacts on marine biodiversity and...

A systematic review of the trophic ecology of eight ecologically and culturally important fish species in the North American Arctic
Rapid climate change occurring in the Arctic may affect the diet of ecologically and culturally important northern fish species. Here, a systematic...

Migration of Fishes in Japan
The Japanese Archipelago is unique in that it extends from the near-arctic island of Hokkaido to the subtropical southern Ryukyu Islands that are... -
The Genesis of Fishes from the Order Salmoniformes
AbstractThe genesis of members of the order Salmoniformes needs elucidation in order to identify the trend of morpho-ecological and genetic evolution...

Freshwater input and ocean connectivity affect habitats and trophic ecology of fishes in Arctic coastal lagoons
Arctic coastal lagoons are important habitats for unique assemblages of diadromous and marine fishes. Many of these fishes are vital to the food...

An updated review of the post-glacial history, ecology, and diversity of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and Dolly Varden (S. malma)
Arctic char ( Salvelinus alpinus ) and Dolly Varden ( S . malma ) are two closely related species in the genus Salvelinus . Both species show substantial...

Climate change and Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) in North America: modelling possible changes in range with different climate scenarios and interspecific interactions
One of the greatest challenges for researchers today is understanding climate-change impacts on fish populations, particularly in vulnerable and...

Increased Rate of Fixation of Nucleotide Substitutions in the Mitochondrial DNA of Bony Fish Species (Osteichthyes) That Originated from the Arctic or Settled through It
AbstractThe problem of differences in the rate of evolution among different animal or plant species has been intensely discussed in recent years, so...

The influence of ocean warming on the natural mortality of marine fishes
Climate change is anticipated to have multiple consequences for aquatic ectotherms. Warming temperatures, for example, are predicted to reduce body...
