This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 887 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behavioural Mechanisms of Food Selection examines animals belonging to diverse trophic groups, from carnivores, herbivores, micro-algal grazers, to filter-feeders and detritus-feeders. In the past Optimal Foraging Theory has been applied to all these groups, but in different ways and in disci plines that rarely overlap. Here concepts and developments hitherto scattered in the literature are drawn together. This uniquely broad synthesis captures the state of the art in the study of diet selection and prescribes new objectives in theoretical development and research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freshwater fishes are among the most imperiled organisms on Earth and understanding their life history is vital to conservation efforts. Grass Pickerel, a top predator, is a nationally imperiled fish that is found at the northern edge of its range, has a highly patchy distribution, and can be rare to abundant where found in Canada. The distribution of Grass Pickerel within a watershed was explained using generalized linear models and is largely driven by site-scale variables such as ample submerged aquatic vegetation, channel cover, and associated wetlands in the floodplain, but regional factors, presumably climate, appeared important as well. Additionally, Grass Pickerel has declined in an eastern Ontario population since 1960 and forage fishes have increased in richness and abundance. Changes in the fish community were evaluated using non-metric multidimensional scaling and are likely due to combined effects of land use changes and alterations to stream hydrology from beaver activity and variable climatic conditions. The results from this study are informative for habitat protection and mitigating threats to this species, but also make a case for improved, standardized monitoring and baseline data. Grass Pickerel populations in Ontario are at the periphery of the species' range and are, perhaps, the most important for the species persistence in a changing world.

Book excerpt: The ecologically similar Chain Pickerel (Esox niger) is native only to Québec in Canada, but appears to be expanding into the range of the Grass Pickerel in Ontario, probably from populations in adjacent portions of New York State (Hoyle and Lake 2011). [...] Although the ranges of the Chain Pickerel and Grass Pickerel overlap in parts of the USA (Page and Burr 2011), little has been reported on their interactions. [...] Under climate change, impacts such as increases in water and air temperatures, changes (decreases) in water levels, shortening of the duration of ice cover, increases in the frequency of extreme weather events, emergence of diseases, and shifts in predator-prey dynamics may negatively impact native fishes (Lemmen and Warren 2004). [...] Based on an evaluation of the effects of climate change on the habitat of coastal wetland fishes in the Great Lakes, Doka et al. [...] Essentially preventive in nature, the list of species liable to be designated as threatened or vulnerable is an administrative and educational device designed to slow or even reverse the process of declines in abundance of species at risk.
