Hydrodynamics and Energetics of Schooling Swimming and Migration of Schooling Fish
AbstractIdeas about the hydrodynamic and energetic benefits of swimming in a school have been considered. The reduction in energy cost for locomotion...

An assessment of the potamodromous fish Opsariichthys uncirostris uncirostris (Hasu fish) during its reproductive migration to a Lake Biwa tributary using stable isotope ratios and biometric data
Opsariichthys uncirostris uncirostris (Hasu fish), a vulnerable potamodromous fish, is the only piscivorous cyprinid fish in Japan and endemic as a...

Beyond just a dam blockage problem: larger artificial reservoirs are additional obstacles to reproductive fish migration in the Neotropics
One of the most conspicuous impacts of dam construction on fish is the blocking of their migratory routes. However, the formation of the reservoir, a...

Migration timing and marine space use of an anadromous Arctic fish (Arctic Char, Salvelinus alpinus) revealed by local spatial statistics and network analysis
BackgroundThe ice-free season (typically late-June to early-October) is crucial for anadromous species of fish in the Arctic, including Arctic Char (

Shoaling and Migration of Fish and Their Relationships with Environment
Fish, cephalopod, shrimp, and other marine economic species generally have the habits of shoaling and migration in the ocean, which is the result of...

Fish Nutrition at the Underwater Mountains of the Whale Ridge (Southeastern Atlantic). 3. Structure of Fish Accumulations and Fish Feeding
AbstractPelagic accumulations of fish are formed above the underwater mountains of the Whale Ridge in the evening and at night, but not observed...

Size-dependent growth tactics of a partially migratory fish before migration
In many migratory species, smaller migrants suffer higher mortality rates during the risky migration. To minimize the size-selective mortality,...

Threat to Fish Fauna
Fish are among the most threatened vertebrates worldwide. In freshwater, dangers are posed by water pollution, straightening, weirs and dams,...

Individual variation in the habitat selection of upstream migrating fish near a barrier
BackgroundMigration is a vital element of the life cycle of many freshwater fish species but is increasingly hampered globally by riverine barriers....

Dynamic adaptation of phytoplankton vertical migration to changing grazing and nutrient conditions
Despite the ubiquitous occurrence of vertical migration of phytoplankton its quantitative significance remains poorly known. We eliminated a dense Daphnia...

Linking fine-scale behaviour to the hydraulic environment shows behavioural responses in riverine fish
BackgroundFish migration has severely been impacted by dam construction. Through the disruption of fish migration routes, freshwater fish communities...

Behavioral correlates of migration in bats – do migration strategies predict responses to a novel environment?
Migration is a life-history trait that shapes individual-by-environment interactions, affecting fitness. Currently, many species are changing their...
