Does size matter? A test of size‐specific mortality in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts tagged with acoustic transmitters (2016)
Journal Article
Newton, M., Barry, J., Dodd, J. A., Lucas, M. C., Boylan, P., & Adams, C. E. (2016). Does size matter? A test of size‐specific mortality in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts tagged with acoustic transmitters. Journal of Fish Biology, 89(3), 1641-1650. https://doi.org/10.1111/jfb.13066

Mortality rates of wild Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts implanted with acoustic transmitters were assessed to determine if mortality was size dependent. The routinely accepted, but widely debated, ‘2% transmitter mass: body mass’ rule in bioteleme... Read More about Does size matter?

Lake bathymetry and species occurrence predict the distribution of a lacustrine apex predator (2016)
Journal Article
Hughes, M. R., Dodd, J. A., Maitland, P. S., & Adams, C. E. (2016). Lake bathymetry and species occurrence predict the distribution of a lacustrine apex predator. Journal of Fish Biology, 88(4), 1648-1654. https://doi.org/10.1111/jfb.12919

This study examined the abiotic and biotic characteristics of ecosystems that allow expression of a life history called ferox trout, the colloquial name given to brown trout Salmo trutta adopting a piscivorous life history strategy, an apex predator...

Inter and intra-population phenotypic and genotypic structuring in the European whitefish Coregonus lavaretus, a rare freshwater fish in Scotland (2016)
Journal Article
Adams, C. E., Bean, C. W., Dodd, J. A., Down, A., Etheridge, E. C., Gowans, A. R. D., …Praebel, K. (2016). Inter and intra-population phenotypic and genotypic structuring in the European whitefish Coregonus lavaretus, a rare freshwater fish in Scotland. Journal of Fish Biology, 88(2), 580-594. https://doi.org/10.1111/jfb.12855

This study revealed between‐lake genetic structuring between Coregonus lavaretus collected from the only two native populations of this species in Scotland, U.K. (Lochs Eck and Lomond) evidenced by the existence of private alleles (12 in Lomond and f...
