Hydraulic Characterization of Mounded Gravel Fish Nests: Incipient Motion Criteria and Despiking Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter Data
… an ecosystem engi- neer that constructs mounded gravel nests for spawning. Chubs provide benefits for other spawning fishes, predators, and benthic organisms through their nest construction. This study seeks to apply sediment transport models to find incipient motion criteria and erosion …

Effects of Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen on Development and Survival of Embryos in Nests of Bluehead Chub Nocomis leptocephalus
… interact, as many species deposit eggs within gravel mounds where oxygen levels fluctuate and embryos develop in close proximity. This thesis experimentally examined how temperature and dissolved oxygen influence embryo physiology and performance within this communal nesting context. Using …
