A study was conducted on bonefish Albula vulpes in The Bahamas to assess the utility of portable physiological diagnostic tools (i‐STAT analyser with E3+ ion and haematology cartridge, ACCU‐CHEK glucose meter Lactate Pro lactate meter) for field physiology applications remote locations. Physiological values derived from were significantly related obtained standard laboratory techniques [glucose ( r 2 = 0·96), packed cell volume (PCV; 0·33), Na + 0·28), K 0·71) Cl − 0·15)]. Actual i.e....
Abstract Decision‐makers in inland fisheries management must balance ecologically and socially palatable objectives for ecosystem services within financial or physical constraints. Climate change has transformed the potential range of available. The Resist‐Accept‐Direct (RAD) framework offers a foundation responding to climate‐induced modification; however, trajectories current practices be understood improve future decisions. Using Wisconsin's diverse as case study, strategies recreational...
Abstract The phenology of critical biological events in aquatic ecosystems is rapidly shifting due to climate change. Growing variability phenological cues can increase the likelihood trophic mismatches (i.e., timing peak prey and predator abundances), causing recruitment failures important fisheries. We assessed changes spawning walleye ( Sander vitreus ) 194 Midwest US lakes investigate factors influencing responses change associated variability, including ice‐off timing, lake physical...
Abstract The harvest of marine resources has long‐standing cultural and economic importance to Bahamas other small island developing states. Tourists residents place a demand on local resources, particularly Caribbean spiny lobster , Panulirus argus (Latreille), queen conch, Lobatus gigas (Linnaeus) Nassau grouper, Epinephelus striatus (Bloch), many fishery products are also sold the global market. Illegal, unreported unregulated fishing coupled with inadequate regulations enforcement main...
Abstract Background Large-river decision-makers are charged with maintaining diverse ecosystem services through unprecedented social-ecological transformations as climate change and other global stressors intensify. The interconnected, dendritic habitats of rivers, which often demarcate jurisdictional boundaries, generate complex management challenges. Here, we explore how the Resist–Accept–Direct (RAD) framework may enhance large-river by promoting coordinated deliberate responses to...
Throughout their circumtropical distribution, bonefish (Albula spp.) play a vital role in local economies as highly prized sport fish. Recent interest stock enhancement to sustain fisheries has led the recognition that there currently are no data on how live capture large numbers of adults (potential broodstock), transport them captive facilities and handle ensure high survival. The objective this study was develop strategies for relocation wild marine research holding facility enable basic...
Abstract Ojibwe Tribes' approach to the natural world is guided by original treaties between beings (species and spirits) people who reside in lands now known as United States Canada. Relationships with these beings, such ogaa (walleye Sander vitreus ), are best characterised taking care of a relative/gift for next seven generations Ojibwe. Initial denial treaty rights state government has strongly influenced tribes' relationship their relatives over 100 years. Ogaa stocks reproduction have...
Bonefish Albula vulpes ( n = 7) exercised to exhaustion and air exposed for 1 min as part of a catch‐and‐release angling event were found excrete both ammonia urea, but cortisol lactate below detectable levels. Urea made up greater proportion total nitrogen excretion from these fish at all time points following an event. When captive juvenile lemon sharks Negaprion brevirostris 12) 30 s pulse chemicals [ammonia (500 mM), (20 µg l −1 ), (6 mM) or urea (3 mM)], they showed significant...
Near-future climate change projections predict an increase in sea surface temperature that is expected to have significant and rapid effects on marine ectotherms, potentially affecting a number of critical life processes. Some habitats also undergo more thermal variability than others, the inhabitants therefore must be tolerant acute periods extreme temperatures. Mitigation these outcomes may occur through acclimation, plasticity or adaptation, although rate extent species' ability adjust...
Climate change due to anthropogenic activity will continue alter the chemistry of oceans.Future climate scenarios indicate that sub-tropical oceans become more acidic, and temperature salinity increase relative current conditions.A large portion previous work has focused on how future may impact shell-forming organisms coral reef fish, with little attention given fish inhabit nearshore habitats; few studies have examined multiple challenges concurrently.The purpose this study was quantify...
Knowledge of the spatial ecology fishes aids in conservation management and informs sustainable use natural resources, although techniques used to monitor movements are often restricted by habitats occupied our inability observe them. Due rapid attenuation acoustic signals shallow ( 0.2 m were actively swimming. With minor modifications tags reducing tag burden, radio telemetry could serve as a feasible means monitoring site-associated species tidal creeks.
