NEW STUDY: Evidence of marine predation on silver New Zealand longfin eels, Anguilla dieffenbachii Jellyman et al. investigated the predation risks faced by migrating New Zealand longfin eels using Pop-up Satellite Archival Tags (PSATs). doi.org/10.1111/fme.12…

Record number of river barriers removed across Europe in 2023. It would be nice to see a bit more of this in NZ! theguardian.com/environment/20…

This is so true!

A new report shows a staggering 81% average decline in migratory fish populations--including salmon, trout, eel, and sturgeon--in the last 50 years. Read the Living Planet Index report to learn how this threatens the health of millions of people and critical freshwater

🚨New report: the 2024 update Living Planet Index for Migratory Freshwater Fishes is out! ❌Migratory fish populations worldwide are under threat due to human activities, with a staggering 81% collapse since 1970 🐟 ➡️Read more at worldfishmigrationfoundation.com/staggering-col… Video by Emerging Creatives of Science

This study examined how temperature affects critical swimming speed in four migratory fish species. The authors call for fish passage solutions that consider temperature fluctuations, to preserve populations in a changing climate 🐟🐟 DOI: doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

In this paper we explore some of the direct and indirect ways that aquatic connectivity in both #freshwater and #marine environments may be impacted by #climatechange and implications for management
