DOI: 10.1007/s10750-018-3824-4
Abstract: Establishing ecological assessment schemes is challenging when gradients are short and there are no sites with minimal anthropogenic alteration against which metrics can be calibrated. This is the situation for large rivers in Romania and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0267113
Abstract: Management actions intended to benefit fish in large rivers can directly or indirectly affect multiple ecosystem components. Without consideration of the effects of management on non-target ecosystem components, unintended consequences may limit management efficacy. Monitoring… read more here.
