We present a quantitative analysis of habitat availability in a highly regulated lowland river,
comparing a restored reach with two reference reaches: an un-restored, channelized reach …

Surrogate species are commonly used to inform endangered species conservation efforts;
however, this approach is unreliable without validation of the surrogate-target species …

Summary The range of Shovelnose Sturgeon (SVS) Scaphirhynchus platorynchus in the
great rivers of central North America has contracted, but most remaining populations are …

Effective management and conservation of fishes requires understanding habitat use across

Validation is critical when considering potential surrogates for endangered species
research. The pallid sturgeon Scaphirhynchus albus is federally endangered in the USA …

The feeding habitats of young-of-year river sturgeon Scaphirhynchus spp. from the Lower
Mississippi River were evaluated. Seventy specimens collected between 2001 and 2010 …

Early life stages of pallid sturgeon Scaphirhynchus albus are rarely collected, and thus
information on their biology and ecology is extremely limited. We sampled 75 larval pallid …
