Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of Life-History Diversification in North American Fishes: implications for Population Regulation
TL;DR: Interspecific patterns of fish life histories were evaluated in relation to several theoretical models of life-history evolution to explore relationships among variables and to ordinate species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Balancing hydropower and biodiversity in the Amazon, Congo, and Mekong

TL;DR: To achieve true sustainability, assessments of new projects must go beyond local impacts by accounting for synergies with existing dams, as well as land cover changes and likely climatic shifts, and call for more sophisticated and holistic hydropower planning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Food webs: integration of patterns and dynamics
Gary A. Polis,Kirk O. Winemiller +1 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on food-web dynamics on some small subtropical islands and on the interactions of top and intermediate predators, as well as on underappreciated interactions in terrestrial food webs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overfishing of Inland Waters
J. David Allan,Robin Abell,Zeb S. Hogan,Carmen Revenga,Brad W. Taylor,Robin Welcomme,Kirk O. Winemiller +6 more
TL;DR: Inland waters have received only slight consideration in recent discussions of the global fisheries crisis, even though inland fisheries provide much-needed protein, jobs, and income, especially in poor rural communities of developing countries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Compensatory density dependence in fish populations: importance, controversy, understanding and prognosis
TL;DR: This work advocates an approach to compensation that involves process-level understanding of the underlying mechanisms, life-history theory, careful analysis of field data, and matrix and individual-based modelling.
