This study examined habitat use patterns of newly settled spotted seatrout Cynoscion nebulosus (Cuvier) across several Gulf of Mexico estuaries. Intensive sampling using an epibenthic sled was conducted in three Texas bays and among three potential habitat types. A long-term data set (1982 to 1997) from the National Marine Fisheries Service was also used to examine C. nebulosus habitat use patt...

ABSTRACT Despite over a century of exploitation of fish in European waters, scientists know surprisingly little about the precise distribution of the major commercially exploited fish species, and their habitat requirements. This is the first European study that aims to identify essential fish habitats of commercially important fish species (cod, haddock, whiting, plaice, sole, plaice, lemon so...

Many types of indices have been developed to assess benthic invertebrate community condition, but there have been few studies evaluating the relative performance of different index approaches. Here we calibrate and compare the performance of five indices: the Benthic Response Index (BRI), Benthic Quality Index (BQI), Relative Benthic Index (RBI), River Invertebrate Prediction and Classification...

EUNIS Habitat Sınıflandırması, uyumlaştırılmış açıklamalar ve Avrupa genelinde veri koleksiyonuna olanak tanıyan, doğaldan yapaya, karasaldan tatlı tuzlu sulara tüm habitat tiplerini içeren, kapsamlı bir sınıflandırma sistemidir. Bu derlemede, 2011-2020 yılları arasında ile ilgili Türkiye’de yapılmış olan literatürdeki çalışmalar taranmıştır. Yapılan literatür taraması sonucunda, 3. seviyede to...

classification trees (j48) were induced to predict the habitat requirements of tench (tinca tinca). 306 datasets were used for the given fish during 8 years in the river basins in flanders (belgium). the input variables consisted of the structural-habitat (width, depth, gradient slope and distance from the source) and physic chemical (ph, dissolved oxygen, water temperature and electric conduct...
