Worldwide, sturgeons (Acipenseridae) are among the most endangered fishes due to
habitat degradation, overfishing, and inherent life history characteristics (long life span, late …

The goal of this paper is to improve the assignment of sex and stage of maturity for
sturgeons and paddlefish by providing both an overview of the gonadal stages of maturity …

Lake Sturgeon is a potamodromous, fluvial‐dependent species from the family
Acipenseridae, and one of the largest freshwater fishes within its North American range …

Many organisms must move among habitats to fulfill life history requirements. Fish
movements have been widely studied and tend to be either fine-scale (ie, routine) and …

Ecologists have a limited understanding of the rangewide variation in movement behavior in
freshwater fishes, but recent expansion of biotelemetry allows biologists to investigate how …

Spatio‐temporal movement patterns of aquatic organisms drive many ecological processes.
However, dams block migrations and alter the hydrologic and thermal regimes influencing …

Movement ecology is increasingly relying on experimental approaches and hypothesis
testing to reveal how, when, where, why, and which animals move. Movement of megafauna …

A telemetry study was conducted on lake sturgeon to determine the seasonal use and
environmental factors that stimulate movement within a tributary of a larger system. Over a …

Movement and habitat utilization of juvenile Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) were
examined in Stephens Lake, a large hydroelectric reservoir on the Nelson River, Manitoba …

The lake sturgeon Acipenser fulvescens is a large, long‐lived, potamodromous species that
is widely distributed throughout freshwater systems in the central part of North America. In …
