Applying a reservoir functional-zone paradigm to littoral bluegills: differences in length and catch frequency?
Reservoirs exhibit gradients in conditions and resources along the transition from lotic to lentic habitat that may be important to bluegill ecology. The lotic-lentic gradient can be partitioned into three functional zones: the riverine, transitional, and lacustrine zones. We measured catch frequency and length of bluegills (Lepomis macrochirus) captured along the periphery of these areas (i.e....
متن کاملCarbon Dioxide Emissions from the Littoral Zone of a Chinese Reservoir
The continuous increase in the number of reservoirs globally has raised important questions about the environmental impact of their greenhouse gases emissions. In particular, the littoral zone may be a hotspot for production of greenhouse gases. We investigated the spatiotemporal variation of CO2 flux at the littoral zone of a Chinese reservoir along a wet-to-dry transect from permanently flood...
متن کاملStudy on biodiversity, catch composition and length frequency distribution around the fish aggregation device in Qeshm Island Persian Gulf
The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of fish aggregation device (FAD) deployment on biodiversity, catch composition and length frequency distribution in the Qeshm Island handline fishery. Two FADs were deployed in the Qeshm Island. Four biodiversity indices including Margalef, Shannon-Weaver, Simpson and Pielou and also catch composition and length frequency distribut...
متن کاملSuitability of Taxodium distichum for Afforesting the Littoral Zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir
The littoral zone ecosystem of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) has become significantly degraded by annual cycles of prolonged winter flooding and summer drought. For purposes of flood control and sediment management, the water level in the reservoir is lowered by 30 m during the summer monsoon season and raised again to 175 m above sea level each year at the end of the monsoon period. To expl...
متن کاملStudy on length frequency and catch per unit effort of sturgeon spawners in the fishing grounds of Mazandaran province
In this study, the catch composition and the catch per unit effort (CPUE) of sturgeon spawners caught by the gill net were investigated in the fishing grounds of Mazandaran province in two regions 3 and. Sampling and data collection of sturgeon spawning fish was done seasonally from 7 fishing grounds using gill nets with a mesh size of 150 mm. The results of the Chi-square test showed that the...
