Ontogenetic dietary shifts (ODSs), the changes in diet utilisation occurring over the life span
of an individual consumer, are widespread in the animal kingdom. Understanding ODSs …

This paper reviews the life history of brown trout and factors influencing decisions to migrate.
Decisions that maximize fitness appear dependent on size at age. In partly anadromous …

Ecological opportunity (ie the diversity of available resources) has a pivotal role in shaping
niche variation and trophic specialisation of animals. However, ecological opportunity can …

Benthic—pelagic coupling plays a pivotal role in aquatic ecosystems but the effects of
fishery driven interactions on its functioning has been largely overlooked. Disentangling the …

A mechanistic understanding of how environmental change affects trophic ecology of fish at
the individual and population level remains elusive. To address this, we conducted a space …

Shifts in the timing of cyclic seasonal life-history events are among the most commonly
reported responses to climate change, with differences in response rates among interacting …

Disentangling the causes and consequences of ontogenetic niche shifts has been a pivotal
challenge in ecology, aiming to enhance the understanding of biological processes that …

The existence of fine-scale structure in the abiotic and biotic characteristics of pelagic
habitats is widely recognized, but the ecological significance of that structure is …

Ontogenetic niche shifts are widespread. However, individual differences in size at birth,
morphology, sex, and personalities can cause variability in behavior. As such, inherent inter …

Global transition towards renewable energy production has increased the demand for new
and more flexible hydropower operations. Before management and stakeholders can make …
