Ccxlviii. New Zealand Fish Oils
IT has been suggested by Lovern [1932 et seq.] that the fats of freshwater fish are, within comparatively small limits, characteristic for that class and quite distinct as regards the relative proportions of component fatty acids from marine fats. So far as the authors are aware the data on this subject have been derived almost entirely from species inhabiting the Northern Hemisphere. The prese...
متن کاملA New Freshwater Biodiversity Indicator Based on Fish Community Assemblages
Biodiversity has reached a critical state. In this context, stakeholders need indicators that both provide a synthetic view of the state of biodiversity and can be used as communication tools. Using river fishes as model, we developed community indicators that aim at integrating various components of biodiversity including interactions between species and ultimately the processes influencing ec...
متن کاملFish Species Assemblages in Two Riverine Systems of Mujib Basin in Jordan and the Effects of Impoundment
Mujib and Haidan rivers were sampled in July 2011 to identify fish populations in the riverine system, and to investigate the impact caused by the existence of two dams. Fishes were sampled by electofishing gear through 14 sampling points distributed along the two rivers. The Mujib Dam lake was sampled by gillnets. A total of 2,854 fish specimen were caught during the study of which most consis...
متن کاملSimulating post-LGM riverine fluxes to the coastal zone: The Waipaoa River System, New Zealand
HydroTrend, a climate-driven hydrologic transport model, is used to simulate the suspended sediment discharge of the Waipaoa River System (WRS) over the last 5.5 kyr. We constrain the precipitation input with a paleo-rainfall index derived from the high-resolution Lake Tutira storm sediment record. The simulation is extended to 22 ka using a lower resolution version of the model, constrained by...
متن کاملPredicting the Potential Impacts of Climate Change on Stream Fish Assemblages
—Stream fish are expected to be influenced by climate change as they are ectothermic animals living in lotic systems. Using fish presence–absence records in 1,110 stream sites across France, our study aimed at (1) modeling current and future distributions of 35 stream fish species, (2) using an ensemble forecasting approach (i.e., several general circulation models [GCM] × greenhouse gas emissi...
