Many freshwater fishes are imperilled globally, and there is a need for easily accessible,
contemporary ecological knowledge to guide management. This compendium contains …

Pelagic spawning riverine fish (pelagophils) spawn in free‐flowing river habitats with
downstream drift of eggs and larvae but the spatial scale is often unknown, and this …

Alteration of flow and thermal regimes is a key consequence of human use of river and
floodplain ecosystems, and these impacts result from a range of interacting ecological …

Increased regulation and extraction of water from rivers has contributed to the decline of
fishes, and the use of environmental water allocations (EWA s) is now a key rehabilitation …

Many aquatic ecosystems have been severely degraded by water-resource development
affecting flow regimes and biological connectivity. Freshwater fish have been particularly …

Age structure information of animal populations is fundamental to their conservation and
management. In fisheries, age is routinely obtained by counting daily or annual increments …

Rivers provide an excellent system to study interactions between patterns of biodiversity
structure and ecological processes. In these environments, gene flow is restricted by the …

Restoring fish populations in regulated rivers requires an understanding of relationships
between hydrology and population dynamics. In the present study, spawning and …

Fish assemblages in dryland rivers have life‐history strategies that have evolved in
response to environmental conditions and triggers, particularly water temperatures and flow …

Floodplain wetlands are productive components of lowland rivers and are thought to be
important habitat and nurseries for many fish species. Fish assemblages inhabiting …
