Diel vertical migrations (DVM) are typical for many cold‐water fish species such as Pacific
salmons (Oncorhynchus spp.) and coregonids (Coregonus spp.) inhabiting deep lakes. A …

Thermal preference and performance provide the physiological frame within which fish
species seek strategies to cope with the challenges raised by the low temperatures and low …

We reported data on thermal preference, thermal tolerance and the thermal dependence of
digestive performance for two Phrynocephalus lizards (P. frontalis and P. versicolor), and …

Increasing sea temperatures are predicted to decrease body size of marine ectotherms
based on the temperature size rule. This will impact fisheries yields, but empirical evidence …

Spatial distribution of the fish community in the deep canyon‐shaped Římov Reservoir,
Czech Republic, was studied using overnight gillnetting fishing in 1999–2007. Effects of …

Aquatic ecosystems world-wide are being irreversibly altered, suggesting that new and
innovative management strategies are necessary to improve ecosystem function and …

Sampling of lake fish assemblages is a challenging task in fish science, and the information
obtained strongly depends on the choice of sampling gear. The use of more than one …

Both surface water temperatures and the intensity of thermal stratification have increased
recently in large lakes throughout the world. Such physical changes can be accompanied by …

Recently, major advances in the climate–zooplankton interface have been made some of
which appeared to receive much attention in a broader audience of ecologists as well. In …

Summary 1 Understanding the ecological forces that are responsible for the evolution and
coexistence of closely related sympatric species is a major interest in evolutionary ecology …
