Estuaries are nutrient-rich environments with a gradient of fresh to salt water. They support
high primary productivity and an abundance of zooplankton. Estuaries are used by many …

Brackish water ecosystems often have high primary production, intermediate salinities, and
fluctuating physical conditions and therefore provide challenging environments for many of …

Non-destructive and cost-effective fish diversity monitoring approaches are needed for the
management and protection of estuarine ecosystems. Environmental DNA (eDNA) …

Larval stages of fishes are highly vulnerable to environmental shifts and anthropogenic
pressures can pose additional stress to such a critical phase. The present study aimed to …

Microbial communities are important indicators of aquatic ecosystem health, responsible for
functional roles sustaining the ecosystem such as nutrient cycling, as well as environmental …

Accurate evaluation of fish stock biomass is essential for effective conservation management
and targeted species enhancement efforts. However, this remains challenging owing to …

Animals living in estuaries suffer from rapid and continuous salinity fluctuations, while the
global warming and extreme precipitation aggravate this situation. Osmoregulation is …

To investigate the spatial–temporal distribution characteristics of Harpadon nehereus in the
Yangtze River Estuary (YRE) and its relationship with environmental factors, this study used …

In the past few years, environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques have been used to monitor
marine communities. Research indicates that eDNA is an effective tool for monitoring fishery …

Mangroves are regarded as important settlement grounds and nurseries for fishes due to the
sheltered nature of these ecosystems. To identify the drivers of temporal variations in fish …
