Biological responses to contaminants in the Humber Estuary: disentangling complex relationships (2011)
Journal Article
García-Alonso, J., Greenway, G., Munshi, A., Gómez, J., Mazik, K., Knight, A., Hardege, J., & Elliott, M. (2011). Biological responses to contaminants in the Humber Estuary: disentangling complex relationships. Marine environmental research, 71(4), 295 - 303. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marenvres.2011.02.004

Due to the ecological importance of estuaries, it is necessary to understand the biological effects that potentially toxic contaminants induce in bioindicator species. A key aspect is whether effects at lower levels of biological organisation transfe... Read More about Biological responses to contaminants in the Humber Estuary: disentangling complex relationships.

Ecosystem approach to inland fisheries: research needs and implementation strategies (2011)
Journal Article
Beard, T. D., Arlinghaus, R., Cooke, S. J., McIntyre, P. B., De Silva, S., Bartley, D., & Cowx, I. G. (2011). Ecosystem approach to inland fisheries: research needs and implementation strategies. Biology Letters, 7(4), 481-483. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2011.0046

Inland fisheries are a vital component in the livelihoods and food security of people throughout the world, as well as contributing huge recreational and economic benefits. These valuable assets are jeopardized by lack of research-based understanding... Read More about Ecosystem approach to inland fisheries: research needs and implementation strategies.

Repeated colonization and hybridization in Lake Malawi cichlids (2011)
Journal Article
Joyce, D., Lunt, D. H., Genner, M. J., Turner, G. F., Bills, R., & Seehausen, O. (2011). Repeated colonization and hybridization in Lake Malawi cichlids. Current biology : CB, 21(3), R108-R109. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2010.11.029

Through adaptive radiation, ancestral species rapidly diversify into multiple species with different ecological adaptations. The haplochromine cichlid fishes of the East African Great Lakes are considered classic examples of adaptive radiation, but o...

Evidence that 1-methyl-L-tryptophan is a food-related odorant for the Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) (2011)
Journal Article
Velez, Z., Hubbard, P. C., Hardege, J. D., Welham, K. J., Barata, E. N., & Canário, A. V. M. (2011). Evidence that 1-methyl-L-tryptophan is a food-related odorant for the Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis). Aquaculture, 314(1-4), 153-158. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aquaculture.2011.01.025

Nocturnal animals often rely heavily on olfactory cues to locate their food. This is especially true for fish whose prey live buried in the substrate. The aim of the current study was to identify non-polar odorants released by the ragworm (Hediste di...
