What is this page?
This page lists the scientific contributions of an author, who either does not have a ResearchGate profile, or has not yet added these contributions to their profile.
It was automatically created by ResearchGate to create a record of this author's body of work. We create such pages to advance our goal of creating and maintaining the most comprehensive scientific repository possible. In doing so, we process publicly available (personal) data relating to the author as a member of the scientific community.
If you're a ResearchGate member, you can follow this page to keep up with this author's work.
If you are this author, and you don't want us to display this page anymore, please let us know.

Hard-bottom habitats span a range of natural substrates ( e.g. , boulders, cobble) and artificial habitats ( e.g. , the base of wind turbines, oil platforms). These hard-bottom habitats can provide a variety of ecosystem services, ranging from the enhancement of fish biomass and production to providing erosion control. Management decisions regardin...
An acid-secreting stomach provides many selective advantages to fish and other vertebrates; however, phenotypic stomach loss has occurred independently multiple times and is linked to loss of expression of both the gastric proton pump and the protease pepsin. Reasons underpinning stomach loss remain uncertain. Understanding the importance of gastri...
The recent return of Atlantic bluefin tuna to northern Europe following the recovery of the east Atlantic stock has sparked substantial public and scientific interest. This is particularly true for recreational anglers in Denmark, who often consider Atlantic bluefin tuna to be the catch of a lifetime. This attitude has previously sustained a substa...
Accurate knowledge on spatiotemporal distributions of marine species and their association with surrounding habitats is crucial to inform adaptive management actions responding to coastal degradation across the globe. Here, we investigate the potential use of environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect species–habitat associations in a patchy coastal area o...
Background
Externally attached archival data logging tags are increasingly used to unravel migration routes of fish species at sea. Due to the relatively large size of the tags, their application on seaward migrating anguillid eels often forms a challenge in terms of feasibility and impact on the eel’s swimming performance. In this study, we invest...
Estuaries are complex environments, which provide important nursery areas for several fish species, but anthropogenic activities as well as low salinities may affect fish reproductive potential. This study investigated spawning migrations of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) and European flounder (Platichthys flesus) in the estuary Roskilde Fjord using...
Seagrass meadows and mussel reefs provide favorable habitats for many fish species, but few studies have compared the associated fish assemblages directly and examined the influence of environmental variables. Knowledge of fish assemblages associated with disparate habitats is needed for the conservation of coastal fisheries and marine spatial plan...
The longstanding debate in conservation biology on the importance of single large or several small (SLOSS) habitats for preserving biodiversity remains highly relevant, given the ongoing degradation and loss of natural habitats worldwide. Restoration efforts are often constrained by limited resources, and insights from SLOSS studies therefore have...
In many places, gillnet fishing is considered a conservation threat for air-breathing marine species. Fish pots represent an alternative to gillnetting; however, due to their low catch efficiency pots are rarely taken up by commercial fisheries. To improve pot efficiency for Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), we used a novel enclosure to observe cod inte...
Habitat fragmentation is a principal threat to biodiversity and artificial river barriers are a leading cause of the global decline in freshwater biota. Whilst the impact of barriers on diadromous fish is well established, impacts on river‐resident fish communities remain unclear, especially for low‐head barriers. We examined the movement of five c...
Artificial barriers cause widespread impacts on freshwater fish. Swimming performance is often used as the key metric in assessing fishes' responses to river barriers. However, barrier mitigation is generally based on the swimming ability of salmonids and other strong swimmers because knowledge of swimming ability for most other freshwater fish is...
Fish pots have lower catch efficiency than gillnets and trawls and, therefore, are rarely used for catching Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) and similar species. Fish-retention devices (FRDs), non-return devices that permit fish to enter the pot while impeding exit, reduce the pot exit rate and therefore can increase catches. Conventional FRDs, however,...

... In addition, double-tagging enables to assess tag retention and effect (Brownscombe et al., 2019;Verhelst et al., 2022). Although limitedly studied , double-tagging comes with reasonable concern over an increased impact of the tagged fish' welfare and movement behaviour. ...
... Next, to obtain probabilistic inference on the effect of reef restoration, we computed BACI ratios via Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling following the protocol described in and the equations from Wilms et al (2021). Briefly, "before" ratios are calculated for each MCMC iteration by extracting the fitted values (on the response scale) for impact (i.e. ...
... This proliferation of barriers to fish movement disrupts ecological connectivity, reducing the quantity of available suitable habitat necessary for lifehistory processes or dispersal (Fraik et al. 2021;Perkin et al. 2015;Nunn et al. 2008;Roni et al. 2002). This reduction in river connectivity alters fish assemblages, reduces population resilience to environmental disturbances and reduces genetic mixing (Jones et al. 2021;Rolls et al. 2013;Nunn and Cowx 2012). To understand the effect of cumulative impacts of barriers in river ecosystems, managers require an evidence-based, scientific approach. ...
... The increased availability of low-cost and high-quality image underwater cameras in recent years (Madsen et al., 2021) has enabled fishing gear technologists to qualitatively assess fish behavior with the aim of understanding the mechanics behind selection processes (Queirolo et al., 2010;Grimaldo et al., 2018;Larsen et al., 2018c). Even further, many studies have quantitatively analyzed the data gathered from underwater video to assess the selective device or fishing gear performance and species behavior (Bayse et al., 2014;Underwood et al., 2015;Bayse et al., 2016;Queirolo et al., 2019;Santos et al., 2020;Ahumada el al., 2021;Araya-Schmidt et al., 2021;Chladek et al., 2021a;Chladek et al., 2021b). The observed fish behaviors are usually tracked from the first detection to the final outcome of the selection process and categorized in stages. ...
... DCI P considers that all barriers are 'impassable' (Cote et al., 2009). Although this may seem overly restrictive for some fish species, all planned dams will reduce stream connectivity and by 'impassable' we really mean 'impactful', as we acknowledge that all barriers have selective effects on river-resident fish (Jones et al., 2020b;Jones et al., 2021a) as well as wider impacts on taxa other than fish (Jones et al., 2020a;Jones et al., 2021b). BFL and I Max are measured in km, are scale-dependent and increase with basin size for a given number of barriers. ...
