Sampling Characteristics and Calibration of Snorkel Counts to Estimate Stream Fish Populations

NORTH AMERICAN JOURNAL OF FISHERIES MANAGEMENT, Vol. 34, pp. 1159–1166.

By: D. Weaver n, T. Kwak n & K. Pollock n

TL;DR: Evaluated the accuracy of snorkeling using prepositioned areal electrofishing for estimating fish populations in a medium-sized Appalachian Mountain river during fall 2008 and summer 2009 and found mean snorkel efficiency was 14.7% (SE, 2.5%). (via Semantic Scholar)

2014 journal article

Otolith microchemistry of tropical diadromous fishes: spatial and migratory dynamics

JOURNAL OF FISH BIOLOGY, 84(4), 913–928.

By: W. Smith n & T. Kwak n

author keywords: partial migration; migratory diversity; Gobiidae; Caribbean; amphidromy; semi-amphidromous
MeSH headings : Animal Migration; Animals; Barium / chemistry; Fishes / physiology; Otolithic Membrane / chemistry; Puerto Rico; Strontium / chemistry; Water / chemistry
TL;DR: Findings indicate the plasticity of migratory strategies of tropical diadromous fishes, which may be more variable than simple categorization might suggest. (via Semantic Scholar)

2014 journal article

A capture-recapture model of amphidromous fish dispersal

JOURNAL OF FISH BIOLOGY, 84(4), 897–912.

By: W. Smith n & T. Kwak n

author keywords: Caribbean; migration; passive integrated transponder; telemetry; diadromy
MeSH headings : Animal Identification Systems; Animal Migration; Animals; Estuaries; Fishes / physiology; Models, Biological; Puerto Rico; Rivers; Spatio-Temporal Analysis; Telemetry
TL;DR: Adult movement scale was quantified for two tropical Caribbean diadromous fishes, bigmouth sleeper Gobiomorus dormitor and mountain mullet Agonostomus monticola, demonstrating that both species follow an amphidromous, rather than catadromic, migratory strategy. (via Semantic Scholar)

2014 journal article

Survival and behaviour of juvenile unionid mussels exposed to thermal stress and dewatering in the presence of a sediment temperature gradient

FRESHWATER BIOLOGY, 59(3), 601–613.

author keywords: burrowing; byssus; climate change; freshwater; mesocosm
TL;DR: It is suggested that rising stream water temperature and dewatering may directly impact freshwater mussel abundance by causing mortality and may have indirect impacts via sublethal effects. (via Semantic Scholar)
