Many animals move among habitats, and even small-scale dispersal of individuals between habitat patches may have strong implications for population dynamics and structure. Here, we use long-term mark–recapture data combined with extensive genotyping and parentage assignment to investigate the importance of small-scale location change of resident brown trout (Salmo trutta) in a small stream (150...

Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida, responsable de la photobactériose connue aussi sous le nom pasteurellose ou pseudotuberculose, a été identifié plusieurs fois chez bar (Dicentrarchus labrax) et daurade (Sparus aurata), élevés dans des cages en mer Tunisie. L’étude clinique, lésionnelle épidémiologique cette maladie ces deux espèces poissons, pendant période 2010‒2020, confirmé que étai...

BACKGROUND Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MR perfusion imaging allows assessment of vascular density and integrity of tumors. The purpose of this study was to determine the diagnostic efficacy of time intensity curve analysis on DCE MRI for characterization of head and neck tumors. METHODS Twenty patients underwent T1-weighted fast field echo DCE MRI with temporal resolution of 2.6 seconds. ...

We observed diel vertical migration patterns in juvenile pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha (Walbaum, 1792)) and tested the hypothesis that fish behaviour is altered by exposure to sea lice copepodids. Experiments involved replicated field deployments of a large (9 m) plankton column, which provided a vertical distribution enclosure under natural light and salinity conditions. Diel vertical di...

Since 1996, some populations of Fraser River sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka Walbaum in Artedi, 1792) have begun spawning migrations weeks earlier than normal, and most perish en route as a result. We suspect that a high midsummer river temperature is the principal cause of mortality. We intercepted 100 sockeye during normal migration near a spawning stream and measured somatic energy and as...
