Mobile consumers track fluctuating resources across heterogeneous landscapes to grow
and survive. In river networks, the abundance and accessibility of food and the energetic …

Climate change and human activities have dramatically affected all ecosystems inhabited by
Atlantic salmon, causing drastic population declines. Change in river temperature dynamics …

Water in rivers is delivered via the critical zone (CZ)—the living skin of the Earth, extending
from the top of the vegetation canopy through the soil and down to fresh bedrock and the …

Understanding invertebrate and fish responses to altered streamflows is important for water
management that balances ecological function and societal needs. We studied the impacts …

The California Central Valley steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) has declined precipitously
since Euro-American colonization and has been listed as threatened under the United …

In the context of warming freshwater habitats, protection of Atlantic salmon populations
requires an understanding of the effects of temperature on somatic growth during the …

Bioenergetics models produce quantitative flow‐ecology relationships that summarize
changes in habitat and food resources from altered flows. We used a drift‐foraging …

Abstract Objective In the western United States, juvenile salmon Oncorhynchus spp. and
steelhead O. mykiss are especially vulnerable to streamflow depletion in the dry season …

Habitat heterogeneity, defined by spatial variation in local environmental conditions, fosters
variation in organism traits and life history strategies, which in turn can stabilize populations …

You've probably noticed that some streams flow year-round while others are seasonally dry,
despite receiving similar amounts of rainfall. Through a recent NSF-funded effort (“Eel River …
