Since the 1980s, the European eel ( Anguilla anguilla ) has declined by over 90% in recruitment across its European and North African distribution area. This diadromous fish spawns at sea and migrates into continental waters, where it grows for three to more than 30 years, depending on habitat conditions and location. During their growth, different habitat use tactics can locally influence the life‐history traits of eels, incl...

The Indian River Lagoon (IRL), located on the east coast of Florida, is a complex estuarine ecosystem that is negatively affected by recurring harmful algal blooms (HABs) from distinct taxonomic/functional groups. Enhanced monitoring was established to facilitate rapid quantification of three recurrent bloom taxa, Aureoumbra lagunensis , Pyrodinium bahamense , and Pseudo-nitzschia spp., and included corroborating techniques to...

We assessed the effects of sexual maturity on space use in Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) parr as facultative early maturation enables us to work on individuals belonging to the same cohort. We monitored the space use of 40 1‐year‐old males in natura throughout a breeding season. First, mature individuals covered longer distances (absolute and upstream) and located within broader home ranges than immature parr. Second, sexual...
