(2025). Larval and juvenile fish abundance, habitat, water quality, flow and climate data from English rivers, 1984-2017. [Data]. https://doi.org/10.5285/c904c5f0-7f21-4759-a7d4-c262da230b53

This dataset contains monthly/annual time series of species-specific abundances and covariates for 137 targeted larval/juvenile fish surveys at sites in a range of English lowland rivers. Larval/juvenile fish data come from two different sources: The... Read More about Larval and juvenile fish abundance, habitat, water quality, flow and climate data from English rivers, 1984-2017.

Downstream passage of silver European eel (Anguilla anguilla) at a pumping station with a gravity sluice (2020)
Journal Article
Baker, N. J., Wright, R. M., Cowx, I. G., Murphy, L. A., & Bolland, J. D. (2020). Downstream passage of silver European eel (Anguilla anguilla) at a pumping station with a gravity sluice. Ecological engineering, Article 106069. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoleng.2020.106069

The European eel (Anguilla anguilla (L.)) is critically endangered after a multi-decadal decline. Anthropogenic disruption to downstream migration, including at water control structures such as pumping stations, is thought to be one of the contributi...

Dynamic competition and resource partitioning during the early life of two widespread, abundant and ecologically similar fishes (2020)
Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Vickers, L., Mazik, K., Bolland, J., Peirson, G., Axford, S., Henshaw, A., & Cowx, I. G. (2020). Dynamic competition and resource partitioning during the early life of two widespread, abundant and ecologically similar fishes. Hydrobiologia, 847, 2211-2224. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-020-04247-5

Competition and resource partitioning can have profound implications for individuals, populations and communities, and thus food webs, ecosystems and the management of biota and environments. In many species, the impacts of competition and resource p...

Marine Biology, 165(4), Article 62. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00227-018-3318-y

© 2018, The Author(s). Discerning behaviours of free-ranging animals allows for quantification of their activity budget, providing important insight into ecology. Over recent years, accelerometers have been used to unveil the cryptic lives of animals...
