Highly fragmented river networks in the UK pose a serious threat to the viability of anadromous fish, including the critically endangered European eel (Anguilla anguilla), thus necessitating remediation at anthropogenic riverine obstructions to resto...

Globally, freshwater ecosystems are heavily impacted by anthropogenic pressures, including fragmentation and exploitation. Consequently, many negative impacts are observed on numerous fish populations, especially anadromous species.
Currently, there... Read More about Understanding the impacts of exploitation and fragmentation on the upstream migrating, adult river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis [L.]): implications for conservation.

River ecosystems are often fragmented by artificial structures, such as weirs. For anadromous species, these structures can impede access to upstream spawning sites and ultimately lead to severe population declines. This study focused on the freshwat...
