Nunn, A. D., Bolland, J. D., Harvey, J. P., & Cowx, I. G. (2007). Establishment of self-sustaining populations of non-native fish species in the River Trent and Warwickshire Avon, UK, indicated by the presence of 0+ fish. Aquatic Invasions, 2(3), 190-196. https://doi.org/10.3391/ai.2007.2.3.6

This study investigated the reproduction of non-native fish species, inferred from the presence of 0+ fish, in three English lowland rivers over an 8 year period. Evidence of self-sustaining populations was found for three non-native fish species, na...

Condition assessment of lamprey populations in the Yorkshire Ouse catchment, north-east England, and the potential influence of physical migration barriers. Aquatic conservation : marine and freshwater ecosystems, 18(2), 175-189. https://doi.org/10.1002/aqc.863

1. River lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) and sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) are designated features of the River Derwent Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and the Humber Estuary (a possible SAC). This study determined the condition of lamprey popul...

1. Climatic effects are increasingly being recognised as an important factor causing inter-annual variability in organism abundances in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. This study investigated the relationships between water temperature (cumulativ...

Variations in the spawning periodicity of eight fish species in three English lowland rivers over a 6 year period, inferred from 0+year fish length distributions (2007)
Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Harvey, J. P., & Cowx, I. G. (2007). Variations in the spawning periodicity of eight fish species in three English lowland rivers over a 6 year period, inferred from 0+year fish length distributions. Journal of fish biology, 70(4), 1254-1267. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1095-8649.2007.01415.x

The spawning periodicity of eight fish species was investigated in three English lowland rivers over a 6 year period from patterns in 0+ year fish standard length (L-S) distributions. A single cohort of 0+ year dace Leuciscus leuciscus, roach Rutilus...

Benefits to 0+fishes of connecting man-made waterbodies to the lower River Trent, England (2007)
Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Harvey, J. P., & Cowx, I. G. (2007). Benefits to 0+fishes of connecting man-made waterbodies to the lower River Trent, England. River Research and Applications, 23(4), 361-376. https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.993

Floodplain waterbodies are reputed to enhance recruitment of riverine fish populations via provision of spawning and nursery habitat, refuge from floods, and increased availability of planktonic food resources compared with main river channels. Notwi... Read More about Benefits to 0+fishes of connecting man-made waterbodies to the lower River Trent, England.

Many fish species are zooplanktivorous at the onset of exogenous feeding, but distinct shifts in their foraging biology may occur with development. This study investigated the food and feeding relationships of the larvae and 0+ year juveniles of 13 f...
