fish assemblage structure and habitat use of the snow fed stream assiganga - a major tributary of river bhagirathi in central himalaya (india)
assiganga stream is an important tributary of bhagirathi river in central himalaya (india). the stream is characterized by heterogeneity in habitat and substratum features harboring diverse fish fauna. at present this stream is facing threat of being fragmented by the construction of two hydro-electric projects. present study aimed to study fish diversity and their habitat use in assiganga stre...
متن کاملTemperature-associated habitat selection in a cold-water marine fish.
Habitat selection is a complex process, which involves behavioural decisions guided by the multiple needs and constraints faced by individuals. Climate-induced changes in environmental conditions may alter those trade-offs and resulting habitat use patterns. In this study, we investigated the effect of sea temperature on habitat selection and habitat use of acoustically tagged Atlantic cod (Gad...
متن کاملFollowing a Foraging Fish-Finder: Diel Habitat Use of Blainville's Beaked Whales Revealed by Echolocation
Simultaneous high resolution sampling of predator behavior and habitat characteristics is often difficult to achieve despite its importance in understanding the foraging decisions and habitat use of predators. Here we tap into the biosonar system of Blainville's beaked whales, Mesoplodon densirostris, using sound and orientation recording tags to uncover prey-finding cues available to echolocat...
متن کاملStream Channel Modifications and Reclamation Structures to Enhance Fish Habitat
The process of channel modification has played a major, although not always beneficial, role in the development of this country. Land drainage has been necessary to convert swampland into fertile, productive farmland. Dredging of our stream bottoms has led to the discovery of precious metals and also to the creation of navigable waterways to transport our people and products. As our cities deve...
متن کاملComparison between Model-Predicted and Field-Measured Stream Habitat Features for Evaluating Fish Assemblage–Habitat Relationships
—The use of model-predicted, local-scale habitat data as inputs in analyses intended to evaluate multiscale fish assemblage–habitat relationships in streams has become increasingly common as the scale at which such studies are conducted has increased. We used fish assemblage and habitat data from 208 wadeable streams in Wisconsin and Michigan to determine whether model-predicted habitat data wo...
