Monitoring fish biodiversity in rivers and streams: A review of sampling effort requirements

Biological conservation requires effective monitoring and an accurate understanding of biodiversity patterns. It is important to examine how stream ecologists have quantified fish richness because it ...

Very proud of this project and the resulting paper. Underwater video is a promising alternative to capture-based fish sampling methods.

How useful is underwater video as a fisheries assessment tool in freshwater? @jacobbowman.bsky.social asked this question for his honours thesis, by comparing video against other ways of counting fish. Editor's Choice in TAFS: academic.oup.com/tafs/advance...

How useful is underwater video as a fisheries assessment tool in temperate freshwater ecosystems?

ABSTRACTObjective. Remote underwater video (RUV) is a noninvasive survey technique that has long been used in marine ecosystems and is now gaining interest

In this new study, we provide new data relevant to the debate about whether oxygen limitation is a universal driver of thermal tolerance in water breathing animals. News story: www.trentu.ca/news/story/2... Paper: journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... Primer: journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

More Oxygen Won’t Save Fish from Warming Waters

Trent study helps inform long-standing theory about increasing oxygen levels in higher water temperatures to support heat tolerance in aquatic species

It was a pleasure to be Erin's research assistant on this project in 2021! Here are some of the amazing and variable streams we visited during our fieldwork.
