Hydropeaking refers to the mode of hydropower dam operation where sub-daily changes in
flow are used to vary the generation of electricity in accordance with demand. A typical …

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 …

Abstract Pikeperch (Sander lucioperca), European catfish (Silurus glanis), burbot (Lota lota),
and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) were collected from the Danube River (Belgrade …

Hydropeaking has negative effects on aquatic biota, but the causal relationships have not
been studied extensively, especially when hydropeaking occurs in combination with other …

Predatory fish species play a key role in aquatic ecosystems by exerting top‐down control
on the food web. Also, their intra‐guild trophic interactions (ie competition) are crucial for the …

The habitat quality of the littoral zone is of key importance for almost all lentic fish species. In
anthropogenically created gravel pit lakes, the littoral zone is often structurally homogenized …

To understand the spatiotemporal overlap in the habitat use of sympatric predators, we
studied longitudinal activity and reservoir section and depth use of pike (Esox lucius) …

Perch Perca fluviatilis is a widespread predator in European reservoirs, frequent in open
waters but also known to spend a lot of time in the littoral zones. To get insight into how adult …

The diversity of predatory species plays a key role in ecosystem functioning but our
understanding of the mechanisms underlying their coexistence is limited, particularly in …

The intracoelomic surgical implantation of telemetry transmitters in fish is becoming the
“standard” tagging approach for most field telemetry studies. Subsequently, efforts must be …
