Population structure and demographic history for year cohort dynamics of landlocked ayu Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis in dam reservoir of Japan.

Ayu Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis is a valuable osmeroid species for inland fishery in Japan. It is classified into two ecological forms of amphidromous migrating between rivers and sea and landlocked migrating between rivers and lakes or dam reservoirs. The number of dams and their reservoirs has remarkably increased in the twenty-first century under climate change, because of their respective roles in hydropower generation with negligible carbon emissions and in flood control.

Estimation of life history parameters for river catfish : insights from multi-models for sustainable management.

The river catfish, is a vital protein source for rural communities and has high commercial value, but understanding its life history and management strategies reveals major inadequacies and ambiguities in the riverine ecosystems. Consequently, this study employs multi-models to analyze the life history parameters of in the Ganges River (northwestern Bangladesh) from January to December, 2020. The total length (TL) and body weight (BW) of 362 individuals (male = 170, female = 192) were measured by a measuring board and a digital weighing balance, respectively.

Stock assessment of landlocked ayu Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis in Japan through length-based models.

Ayu Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis is a key commercially and culturally important freshwater osmeroid in Japan. Its native population is mostly an amphidromous form migrating between rivers and the sea, and not only native but also artificially landlocked forms are found in lakes and dam reservoirs. This study was undertaken to execute population feasibility and maximum sustainable yield (MSY) analysis of an artificially landlocked form of ayu during January 2018 to December 2020 in the Haidzuka reservoir and its connected Tabusa River, western Japan.

Reproduction of Eutropiichthys vacha (Schilbeidae) in the Ganges River (NW Bangladesh) with special reference to potential influence of climate variability.

The Batchwa vacha, Eutropiichthys vacha is commercially important, supporting a viable small- and large-scale fishery throughout the Ganges River, NW Bangladesh. This study provides detail information on reproduction of E. vacha including size at sexual maturity, spawning and peak spawning season, and fecundity based on 734 female specimens through regular monthly sampling using cast net, gill net, and square lift net in the Ganges River during January to December 2016.
