  1. 1. Ecological impacts of dam removal in Swedish inland waters : Effects on water chemistry and fish demography

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Johanna Ekman; [2023]
    Keywords : biology; ecology; dam removal; Sweden; impact; inland waters; ecosystem; water chemistry; fish demography; Perca fluviatilis; European perch; biologi; ekologi; dammutrivning; Sverige; påverkan; inlandsvatten; ekosystem; vattenkemi; fiskdemografi; Perca fluviatilis; abborre;

    Abstract : Dams play an important role in our society, but their negative impacts on aquatic ecosystems have led to a need for conservation efforts to mitigate the negative effects. In some instances, dam removal has been suggested to be the most economically and ecologically beneficial restoration method to improve longitudinal connectivity. READ MORE

  3. 2. Beteendeeffekter av antidepressivt läkemedel på abborre (Perca fluviatilis) : socialt och aktivt beteende undersökts genom att kombinera behandlingar med oxazepam, temperatur och predationstryck

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Author : Oskar Karlsson; Svante Knutsen; [2020]
    Keywords : antidepressiva läkemedel; oxazepam; abborre;

    Abstract : Användandet av antidepressiva och ångestdämpande läkemedel, som ex. oxazepam, ökar i samhället vilket kan leda till höga halter i våra vattendrag. Tidigare studier har visat att abborrar som blir utsatta för miljörelevanta koncentrationer av oxazepam ändrar sitt beteende. READ MORE

  4. 3. Putting behavioral assays on fish to the test: Are sociality and scototaxis trials relevant in the wild?

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Arno Veenstra; [2020]
    Keywords : Acoustic telemetry; Social network; Sociality; Scototaxis; Migration;

    Abstract : Animal behavior has become a frequently used tool in modern ecology and ecotoxicology, where laboratory behavioral traits are recognized as sensitive endpoints for assessing natural behavior or non-lethal effects of pollutants on animals. Within these research fields, behavioral traits measured in laboratory environments have been used to formulate predictions of ecological consequences that accompany specific behavior. READ MORE

  5. 4. European perch (Perca fluviatilis) as a possible predator of the invasive round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) in the Baltic Sea

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

    Author : Mari-Helen Westlund; [2020]
    Keywords : Baltic Sea; invasive species; Round goby; Perch; prey-predator interaction;

    Abstract : Invasive species is a global issue with a strong link to reduced biodiversity and large economic costs. The invasive fish species round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) is one of the species that are spreading in the Baltic Sea area most rapidly, and risk causing major issues. READ MORE

  6. 5. Barriers effect on lotic fish fauna

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

    Author : Johan Rudin; [2016]
    Keywords : migration barriers; ; Lotic fish fauna;

    Abstract : Barriers in running (lotic) waters are known to have serious impacts on fish fauna that would otherwise naturally colonialize them. The two most important effects barriers have on lotic fish fauna are the blockage of fish migration routes and the reduction of water velocity. READ MORE
