Increasing habitat complexity on seawalls: Investigating large‐ and small‐scale effects on fish assemblages
The construction of artificial structures in the marine environment is increasing globally. Eco-engineering aims to mitigate the negative ecological impacts of built infrastructure through designing structures to be multifunctional, benefiting both humans and nature. To date, the focus of eco-engineering has largely been on benefits for benthic invertebrates and algae. Here, the potential effec...
متن کاملEcological Consequences of Hydropower Development in Central America: Impacts of Small Dams and Water Diversion on Neotropical Stream Fish Assemblages
Small dams for hydropower have caused widespread alteration of Central American rivers, yet much of recent development has gone undocumented by scientists and conservationists. We examined the ecological effects of a small hydropower plant (Doña Julia Hydroelectric Center) on two low-order streams (the Puerto Viejo River and Quebradon stream) draining a mountainous area of Costa Rica. Operation...

متن کاملDriving small-scale fisheries in developing countries
Small-scale fisheries (SSFs) engage the vast majority of the world’s fishers but are struggling to keep pace with coastal populations, and stocks are declining to levels that threaten reproductive capacity. The provision of food and livelihoods to low-income fishers into the future will be unlikely without radical changes to fisheries policy. We draw on repeating analogies of driving a car to i...
متن کاملEndogenous Activity Rhythms of Larval Fish Assemblages in a Mangrove- fringed Estuary in North Brazil
In Caeté Estuary, the decrease of larval abundance downstream was attributed to reduced retention, since ebb tide densities prevailed mainly in the middle and lower estuary during the rainy season due to increased freshwater outflow. Anchovia clupeoides, Stellifer microps and Guavina guavina were most abundant in the late dry season on flood tides in the upper estuary, whereas ebb tide densitie...
