  • Acoustic Telemetry Reveals Large-Scale Migration Patterns of Walleye in Lake Huron

    Published on June 1, 2015
    Our findings reveal that fish from this stock use virtually the entirety of U.S. nearshore waters of Lake Huron.

  • Estimating reach-specific fish movement probabilities in rivers with a Bayesian state-space model: application to sea lamprey passage and capture at dams

    Published on June 1, 2015
    Improved methods are needed to evaluate barriers and traps for control and assessment of invasive sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) in the Great Lakes.

  • Summer Habitat Use by Introduced Smallmouth Bass in an Oligotrophic Adirondack Lake

    Published on June 1, 2015
    Snorkel surveys, from late June through early August 1997, were used to determine the distribution and abundance of fish in the littoral zone.

  • Behavior of Lake Trout Sac Fry: Vertical Movement at Different Developmental Stages

    Published on May 27, 2015
    The purpose of this study was to compare vertical movement of lake trout sac fry at different developmental stages, to describe their diel movement patterns, and to examine the distance that sac fry will swim off the bottom.

  • Promises and perils for the panda

    Published on May 22, 2015
    Excerpts from Promises and perils for the panda

  • Space use by endangered giant pandas

    Published on March 29, 2015
    We studied 5 giant pandas using GPS telemetry and estimated home ranges, core areas, and space use using model-based approaches.

  • Hidden Benefits of Electric Vehicles for Addressing Climate Change

    Published on March 19, 2015
    Here we reveal two hidden benefits of EVs for addressing climate change to support the imperative acceleration of replacing CVs with EVs.

  • US climate policy needs behavioural science

    Published on March 11, 2015
    State implementation of new Environmental Protection Agency climate regulation may shift behavioural strategies from sidelines to forefront of US climate policy.

  • SCIENCE -- Systems integration for global sustainability

    Published on February 27, 2015
    Systems integration—holistic approaches to integrating various components of coupled human and natural systems—is critical to understand socioeconomic and environmental interconnections and to create sustainability solutions.

  • Bouncing Back: Plant-Associated Soil Microbes Respond Rapidly to Prairie Establishment

    Published on January 13, 2015
    It is well established that soil microbial communities change in response to altered land use and land cover, but less is known about the timing of these changes.

  • A synthesis of giant panda habitat selection

    Published on January 12, 2015
    The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is a global conservation icon, but its habitat selection patterns are poorly understood.

  • Synchronized peak-rate years of global resources use

    Published on January 7, 2015
    This study has estimated the year of peak rate for multiple resources and investigated the relationships among them.

  • Opinion: Building a 21st-century infrastructure for the social sciences

    Published on December 12, 2014
    To generate analyses will require entirely new ways to collect, and link, diverse data to improve population health, reduce environmental and social vulnerabilities, and better prepare people for the jobs of the future.

  • Impacts of people and tigers on leopard spatiotemporal activity patterns in a global biodiversity hotspot

    Published on December 9, 2014
    Continuing to evaluate the interconnections among leopards, tigers, prey, and people across different land management regimes is needed to develop robust landscape-scale conservation strategies.

  • New insight into the spawning behavior of lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush , from a recovering population in the Laurentian Great Lakes

    Published on November 25, 2014
    The model presented in this paper is intended as a working hypothesis, and further revision may become necessary as we gain a more complete understanding of lake trout spawning behavior.

  • Lake trout in northern Lake Huron spawn on submerged drumlins

    Published on November 25, 2014
    Understanding the role of glacially-derived bedforms may help develop powerful predictors of lake trout spawning locations, provide insight into the evolution of unique spawning behaviors by lake trout, and aid in lake trout restoration in the Great Lakes.

  • Use of oviduct-inserted acoustic transmitters and positional telemetry to estimate timing and location of spawning: a feasibility study in lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush

    Published on November 25, 2014
    Three assumptions were tested: (1) oviduct transmitters remain within fish until spawning, (2) oviduct transmitters are expelled with the eggs during spawning, and (3) time and location of oviduct transmitter expulsion can be accurately determined.

  • Characterizing coal and mineral mines as a regional source of stress to stream fish assemblages

    Published on November 24, 2014
    The associations between co-occurring stream fish assemblages and densities of various “classes” of mining occurring in the same catchments were tested using threshold analysis.

  • Ecomorphological Diversity of Lake Trout at Isle Royale, Lake Superior

    Published on November 24, 2014
    Four Lake Trout Salvelinus namaycush morphs were identified from Isle Royale, Lake Superior; the morphs differed in shape, traits linked to feeding and locomotion, buoyancy, and physical habitat use.

  • Reproductive life-history strategies in lake whitefish ( Coregonus clupeaformis ) from the Laurentian Great Lakes

    Published on November 24, 2014
    Recent food-web changes in the Laurentian Great Lakes are affecting energy and nutrient allocation to lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) with potential downstream effects on egg condition and recruitment
