Changes in Stormwater Thermal Loads Due to Bioretention Cells
… economic impact in Virginia. Along with other cold-water fish species, trout are extremely susceptible to changes in stream temperatures. Urban development and the increase in impervious surfaces alter the hydrologic cycle in urban watersheds, limiting infiltration and increasing surface …

The Utility of Microfossils in Geoarchaeology: A Case Study from Lake Simcoe, Ontario and Methodological Considerations
… aquatic wildlife, notably economically-important cold water fish. Non-pollen palynomorphs (NPP) are more sensitive proxies of water quality than sedimentary phosphorus, and have a higher fossilization potential than mineralized microfossils like diatoms, although some, notably desmids, were shown …

Development of Effective Procedures for Stormwater Thermal Pollution Potential Risk Mapping
Thermal pollution of waterbodies occurring from heated stormwater runoff in urban catchments is a growing concern among municipalities in the United States. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) maintains regulatory criteria for temperature of waters of the U.S. as many species of aquatic …

Effects of temperature and density on the facial malformation of hatchery-reared cisco, Coregonus artedi
… hatchery-reared cisco (Jordan River National Fish Hatchery) to wild-caught cisco (northern Lake Huron) using geometric morphometrics. Our results suggest that the onset of malformation begins by preflexion, and possibly earlier, during early ontogeny and the beginning of endochondral …

EFFECTS OF WINTER AND SUMMER THERMAL VARIABILITY REGIMES ON GROWTH AND METABOLISM IN BROOK TROUT (Salvelinus fontinalis)
… trout (<em>Salvelinus fontinalis</em>) is a cold-water species with a narrow range of thermal tolerance. Climate change projections show that in addition to increases in average temperatures worldwide, daily thermal variability is increasing. Such conditions could prove challenging for brook …

Application of fish gelatin in novel emulsion-based delivery systems
In recent years, fish gelatins (FG) have emerged as promising substitutes for mammalian gelatin, attracting extensive attention. Owing to their dual characteristics of emulsifying and gelling, gelatins are considered valuable ingredients in emulsion-based delivery systems. However, the application …

Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) Summer Habitat Use in Lake Spokane, Washington
… of rivers, influencing a wide variety of water quality characteristics directly impacting fish species. These physical alterations will interact with increasing temperatures, due to climate change, reducing thermal habitat for cold-water fish species. Rainbow Trout are sensitive to changes …
