Canada's recreational fisheries: the invisible collapse?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reject the view that recreational and commercial fisheries are inherently different and demonstrate several mechanisms that can lead to the collapse of recreational fisheries, including over-exploitation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climate, Population Viability, and the Zoogeography of Temperate Fishes

TL;DR: It is shown that weight-specific basal metabolism increases as size decreases; however, there is no corresponding increase in energy storage capacity, and this constraint is sufficient to explain the present locations of the northern distribu...
Journal ArticleDOI

Interpreting the von Bertalanffy model of somatic growth in fishes: the cost of reproduction.

TL;DR: A model for somatic growth in fishes that explicitly allows for the energy demand imposed by reproduction is developed and is consistent with observed variations in the life–history traits of a large sample of iteroparous freshwater fishes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patterns of Food Chain Length in Lakes: A Stable Isotope Study.

TL;DR: This study quantifies trophic relationships and food chain length in 14 Ontario and Quebec lakes and argues that productive space (productivity by area) is a more improved need for food web descriptions that improve the relative importance of information pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stochastic Simulation of Temperature Effects on First-Year Survival of Smallmouth Bass

TL;DR: The physiological basis for well-known correlations between summer air temperature indices and year-class strength in northern smallmouth bass populations was examined and incorporated into a deterministic model of the relations between temperature and first-year survival of small-mouth bass.
