Journal Article
Dodd, J. R., Noble, R. A. A., Nunn, A. D., Owen, H. M., Moccetti, P., Harvey, J. P., Wallace, L., Gillespie, B., Joyce, D. A., & Bolland, J. D. (online). Spatial ecology and population dynamics of brown trout Salmo trutta L. in reservoirs and headwater tributaries. Journal of fish biology, https://doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15814

This investigation compared the spatial ecology and population dynamics of brown trout Salmo trutta L. between reservoirs with (impact; Langsett Reservoir) and without (control; Grimwith Reservoir) barriers to fish movements into headwater tributarie...

Genetic consequences of improved river connectivity in brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) (2024)
Journal Article
Moccetti, P., Dodd, J. R., Joyce, D. A., Nunn, A. D., Gillespie, B., & Bolland, J. D. (2024). Genetic consequences of improved river connectivity in brown trout (Salmo trutta L.). Evolutionary Applications, 17(4), Article e13660. https://doi.org/10.1111/eva.13660

Fragmentation of watercourses poses a significant threat to biodiversity, particularly for migratory fish species. Mitigation measures such as fishways, have been increasingly implemented to restore river connectivity and support fish migration. The...

Aquatic connectivity: challenges and solutions in a changing climate (2024)
Journal Article
Franklin, P. A., Bašić, T., Davison, P. I., Dunkley, K., Ellis, J., Gangal, M., …Gutowsky, L. F. G. (2024). Aquatic connectivity: challenges and solutions in a changing climate. Journal of fish biology, https://doi.org/10.1111/jfb.15727

The challenge of managing aquatic connectivity in a changing climate is exacerbated in the presence of additional anthropogenic stressors, social factors, and economic drivers. Here we discuss these issues in the context of structural and functional... Read More about Aquatic connectivity: challenges and solutions in a changing climate.

Lateral line system diversification during the early stages of ecological speciation in cichlid fish (2024)
Journal Article
Edgley, D. E., Carruthers, M., Gabagambi, N. P., Saxon, A. D., Smith, A. M., Joyce, D. A., …Genner, M. J. (2024). Lateral line system diversification during the early stages of ecological speciation in cichlid fish. BMC Ecology and Evolution, 24(1), Article 24. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12862-024-02214-5

Background: The mechanosensory lateral line system is an important sensory modality in fishes, informing multiple behaviours related to survival including finding food and navigating in dark environments. Given its ecological importance, we may expec... Read More about Lateral line system diversification during the early stages of ecological speciation in cichlid fish.
