The Amazon basin hosts the Earth's highest diversity of freshwater fish. Fish species have
adapted to the basin's size and seasonal dynamics by displaying a broad range of migratory …

The Amazon basin is the largest and most species-rich tropical forest and river system in the
world, playing a pivotal role in global climate regulation and harboring hundreds of …

Infrastructure development and overfishing in the Amazon make it imperative to define
adequate scales for the ecosystem‐based management of commercial fisheries and the …

We mapped the inferred long-distance migrations of four species of Amazonian goliath
catfishes (Brachyplatystoma rousseauxii, B. platynemum, B. juruense and B. vaillantii) based …

Knowledge of fish migration is a prerequisite to sustainable fisheries management and
preservation, especially in large international river basins. In particular, understanding …

Migratory species are the most important commercial fishes in the Amazon. They are also
now the most threatened directly by some combination of overfishing, floodplain …

Tropical fisheries, which are considered multi-species, may show selectiveness. We
analyzed the degree of selectivity of fish catches in 46 sites along the Amazon basin through …

This paper explores the effects of two run-of-river dams (Jirau and Santo Antônio) built in
cascade in the middle Madeira River (Brazil) on the interruption of long-distance migration …

Animal migrations provide important ecological functions and can allow for increased
biodiversity through habitat and niche diversification. However, aquatic migrations in …

Amazonian goliath catfishes are widespread in the Amazon Basin. Recently, otolith 87Sr:
86Sr analyses using laser ablation–multi‐collector–inductively coupled plasma mass …
