River water temperature measurement networks suffer from an inadequate spatial coverage
and a lack of data. No methods exist for the regional estimation of river water temperature at …

Streamflow regimes that maintain vital functions and processes of aquatic ecosystems are
critical to sustaining ecosystem health. In rivers with altered flow regimes, restoring …

Spawning phenology and associated migrations of fishes are often regulated by factors such
as temperature and stream discharge, but flow regulation of mainstem rivers coupled with …

Seasonal movements cued by environmental variables are a critical component of riverine
fish life history. Life‐history events for species such as blue sucker Cycleptus elongatus are …

In riverine ecosystems, movements of biota among different parts of the river network are
fundamental to the functioning and sustainability of populations, especially for fish. Globally …

Species conservation requires a clear understanding of habitat availability and subsequent
use of those habitats. In cases where species declines have occurred and gone undetected …

Tributaries provide temporal and spatial habitat heterogeneity in river networks that can be
critical for parts of the life history of a species. Tributary fidelity can benefit individual fish …

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

Conservation management of freshwater ecosystems often focuses on mitigating or
reversing the negative effects of altered patterns of river discharge. Assessments of …

Water quality and freshwater ecosystems are affected by river discharge and temperature.
Models are frequently used to estimate river temperature on large spatial and temporal …
