FEEDING ECOLOGY OF 0+ FISHES
There are numerous biotic and abiotic factors that affect the abundance of cyprinid fish stocks in rivers, many of which are poorly understood. The role of food availability during critical life stages is one of these fa... Read More about The ecology of larval and juvenile fishes in lowland rivers, with particular emphasis on foraging.

Applications of fish scale analysis to understand growth dynamics of fish populations (2012)
Thesis
Taylor, R. J. (2012). Applications of fish scale analysis to understand growth dynamics of fish populations. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4212921

The use of hard structures to derive ecological information about fish populations is a fundamental tool in fisheries assessment, specifically the back-calculation of fish lengths. This study highlights the potential errors associated with correction... Read More about Applications of fish scale analysis to understand growth dynamics of fish populations.

Morphological and ecological divergence in the hybridogenic fish complex Squalius alburnoides (2012)
Thesis
Smith, V. A. J. (2012). Morphological and ecological divergence in the hybridogenic fish complex Squalius alburnoides. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4213519

Polyploidy in animals is rare and often associated with asexual reproduction in all-female lineages. Although some authors believe these lineages to be evolutionary dead ends there is increasing evidence that some species can adapt efficiently and ul...
