How much is enough? The recurrent problem of setting measurable objectives in conservation How much is enough? The recurrent problem of setting measurable objectives in conservation
International agreements, environmental laws, resource management agencies, and environmental nongovernmental organizations all establish objectives that define what they hope to accomplish. Unfortunately, quantitative objectives in conservation are typically set without consistency and scientific rigor. As a result, conservationists are failing to provide credible answers to the...

Impacts of new highways and subsequent landscape urbanization on stream habitat and biota Impacts of new highways and subsequent landscape urbanization on stream habitat and biota
New highways are pervasive, pernicious threats to stream ecosystems because of their short- and long-term physical, chemical, and biological impacts. Unfortunately, standard environmental impact statements (EISs) and environmental assessments (EAs) focus narrowly on the initial direct impacts of construction and ignore other long-term indirect impacts. More thorough consideration of...

A comparison of injectable fluorescent marks in two genera of darters: Effects on survival and retention rates A comparison of injectable fluorescent marks in two genera of darters: Effects on survival and retention rates
Visible implant elastomer (VIE) and injectable photonic dye (IPD), two types of injectable fluorescent marks, have shown promise in previous applications in a variety of fishes but have not been extensively tested on darters. We marked a species from each of two genera of darters, Percina and Etheostoma, in a laboratory experiment to determine the influence of VIE and IPD marks on...

Ecological correlates of fish movement in a network of Virginia streams Ecological correlates of fish movement in a network of Virginia streams
Identifying factors that influence fish movement is a key step in predicting how populations respond to environmental change. Using mark-recapture (four species) and trap capture (eight species) data, we examined relationships between three attributes of movement and 15 ecological variables. The probability of emigrating from a reach was positively related to intermittency (one species)...

Geographic variation in patterns of nestedness among local stream fish assemblages in Virginia Geographic variation in patterns of nestedness among local stream fish assemblages in Virginia
Nestedness of faunal assemblages is a multiscale phenomenon, potentially influenced by a variety of factors. Prior small-scale studies have found freshwater fish species assemblages to be nested along stream courses as a result of either selective colonization or extinction. However, within-stream gradients in temperature and other factors are correlated with the distributions of many...
