Influence of the flood regime on the reproduction of fish species with different reproductive strategies in the Cuiabá River, Upper Pantanal, Brazil (2008, background): “This flexibility in the spawning periods allows the species to synchronize their reproduction with environmental conditions more favourable to survival of the offspring (King et al., 2003).”
Recruitment and abundance of an invasive fish, the common carp, is driven by its propensity to invade and reproduce in basins that experience winter-time hypoxia in interconnected lakes (2009, background): “This conclusion is reinforced by numerous accounts of adult carp moving though small passages of water in early spring throughout the American Midwest, Australia, and Ponto-Caspian regions (Koblitskaya 1977; Swee and McCrimmon 1966; King et al. 2003; Crook and Gillanders 2006).”
Variability of fish diets between dry and flood periods in an arid zone floodplain river (2005, background): “Overland floods are important for the long-term persistence of fish assemblages in lowland rivers especially because they allow access to the floodplain (Humphries et al., 1999; King et al., 2003).”
Temporal changes in fish abundance in response to hydrological variability in a dryland floodplain river (2009, background): “…of flow and thermal regime is thought to be an important requirement, if not a cue, for spawning and the subsequent pulses of fish recruitment that typify many floodplain 3 river fish assemblages (King et al. 2003; Arrington and Winemiller 2004; Balcombe et al. 2006, 2007; Welcomme et al. 2006a).”
Fish recruitment in a large, temperate floodplain: the importance of annual flooding, temperature and habitat complexity (2011, background): “recruitment is too simple, because not all species will be equally affected by habitat complexity and temperature in the floodplain (King et al., 2003; Zeug & Winemiller, 2008).”
Multiscale effects of flow regime and habitat and their interaction on fish assemblage structure in eastern Australia (2007, background): “The recent history of hydrological events has been shown elsewhere to be an important driver of fish abundance patterns via recruitment processes (e.g., Schlosser 1985; King et al. 2003).”
Environmental flow enhances native fish spawning and recruitment in the Murray River, Australia (2009, background): “…the relationship between the natural flow regime and its influence on the early life of fishes is vital to manage fish populations in flow altered rivers, but is generally poorly understood (e.g. Humphries et al., 1999; Marchetti and Moyle, 2001; King et al., 2003; Balcombe et al., 2006).”
Behavioural responses of a south‐east Australian floodplain fish community to gradual hypoxia (2007, background): “episodes, particularly during seasonal summer droughts (King et al., 2003; McNeil, 2004).”
Fish assemblages of an Australian dryland river: abundance, assemblage structure and recruitment patterns in the Warrego River, Murray-Darling Basin (2006, neutral): “Temporal variability in fish assemblages is driven by similar processes that impact on fish population dynamics via immigration, emigration, spawning, recruitment and mortality (King et al. 2003; Balcombe and Closs 2004; Welcomme and Halls 2004).”
Spawning time and early life history of Murray cod, Maccullochella peelii (Mitchell) in an Australian river (2005, background): “Although this may very well be the case for some species, there is growing evidence that many species spawn every year, irrespective of flow conditions (Humphries & Lake 2000; Humphries et al. 2002; King et al. 2003 ).”
