Contrary to what is stated in biology textbooks, the growth of fish doesn't slow down when and because they start spawning. In fact, their growth accelerates after they reproduce, according to a new ...
A new study provides the first detailed documentation of a shallow-water fish diving 450 feet deep to spawn. Uncovering this very rare spawning behavior in bonefish (Albula vulpes) is unprecedented.
Microplastic pollution is not only a question of how much plastic is in the ocean, but also when fish meet it. A global analysis now suggests that reproductive seasons can turn familiar contamination ...
A group of animal biologists and chemists at the Institute of Transformative Bio-Molecules (ITbM) at Nagoya University in central Japan, in collaboration with Toyota Boshoku Corporation and Niigata ...
A new peer-reviewed research paper, authored by Shedd Aquarium and published in Journal of Great Lakes Research, assesses the fish species that spawn in the Chicago River to sustain and support ...
Using active acoustic telemetry and sonar data, a study provides the first detailed documentation of a shallow water fish diving 450 feet deep to spawn. Prior research has shown that bonefish dive ...
Fish spawning aggregations (FSAs) are predictable congregations of conspecific fishes at specific sites and times for reproduction. These events underpin the replenishment of many commercially and ...
For the first time, a mackerel tuna—also known as “kawakawa” and “tulingan” in the Philippines, long considered nearly ...
Although air and water temperatures are still relatively cool, longer days and increasing air temperatures are slowly warming area lakes. Increasing lake temperatures begin to stimulate natural ...
You know it’s fall in the Ozarks when leaves start to turn color, temperatures start to cool… and brown trout start to leap upstream out of Lake Taneycomo. Odd though it may sound, “leap” — not swim — ...
Animal biologists and chemists have identified the pheromone involved in the mechanism that triggers puffer fish to spawn on beaches using moonlight. A group of animal biologists and chemists at the ...
