Is there evidence for a shift in fish growth and recruitment success linked to climate change? (2010)
Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Frear, P. A., Lee, M., & Cowx, I. G. (2010). Is there evidence for a shift in fish growth and recruitment success linked to climate change?. Journal of fish biology, 77(8), 1780-1792. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1095-8649.2010.02751.x

This study investigated whether a putative shift in climate regime in the North Atlantic in the 1990s coincided with changes in the growth and recruitment of roach Rutilus rutilus in the north-east of England. The relationships between R. rutilus gro... Read More about Is there evidence for a shift in fish growth and recruitment success linked to climate change?.

A new in vitro screening bioassay for the ecotoxicological evaluation of the estrogenic responses of environmental chemicals using roach (Rutilus rutilus) liver explant culture (2010)
Journal Article
Gerbron, M., Geraudie, P., Rotchell, J., & Minier, C. (2010). A new in vitro screening bioassay for the ecotoxicological evaluation of the estrogenic responses of environmental chemicals using roach (Rutilus rutilus) liver explant culture. Environmental Toxicology, 25(5), 510-516. https://doi.org/10.1002/tox.20596

There is growing evidence that many chemicals released in the environment are able to disturb the normal endocrinology of organisms affecting the structure and function of their reproductive system. This has prompted the scientific community to devel...

Phylogeny and metabolic scaling in mammals (2010)
Journal Article
Capellini, I., Venditti, C., & Barton, R. A. (2010). Phylogeny and metabolic scaling in mammals. Ecology, 91(9), 2783-2793. https://doi.org/10.1890/09-0817.1

The scaling of metabolic rates to body size is widely considered to be of great biological and ecological importance, and much attention has been devoted to determining its theoretical and empirical value. Most debate centers on whether the underlyin... Read More about Phylogeny and metabolic scaling in mammals.

A protocol for stocking hatchery reared freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera (2010)
Journal Article
Bolland, J. D., Bracken, L. J., Martin, R., & Lucas, M. C. (2010). A protocol for stocking hatchery reared freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera. Aquatic conservation : marine and freshwater ecosystems, 20(6), 695-704. https://doi.org/10.1002/aqc.1139

1.Freshwater pearl mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera L.) populations are under serious threat of extinction throughout their geographical range and only a few remnant populations are recruiting to adulthood. Consequently, M. margaritifera is classi... Read More about A protocol for stocking hatchery reared freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera.

The temporal selfish herd: predation risk while aggregations form (2010)
Journal Article
Morrell, L. J., Ruxton, G. D., & James, R. (2011). The temporal selfish herd: predation risk while aggregations form. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 278(1705), 605-612. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2010.1605

The hypothesis of the selfish herd has been highly influential to our understanding of animal aggregation. Various movement strategies have been proposed by which individuals might aggregate to form a selfish herd as a defence against predation, but...
