Synergistic patterns of threat and the challenges facing global anguillid eel conservation (2015, background): “The need to increase monitoring efforts and co-ordinate international conservation strategies for freshwater fish populations has never been greater, particularly for the relatively small number of diadromous fishes that migrate between saline and freshwater environments (McDowall, 1999; Jelks et al”
Unintended consequences and trade-offs of fish passage (2013, background): “Consequently, dams and weirs have been implicated in the declines of many threatened freshwater fishes (Ingram et al. 1990; Hay-Chmielewski and Whelan 1997; Limburg and Waldman 2009).”
The Decline and Impending Collapse of the Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Population in the North Atlantic Ocean: A Review of Possible Causes (2021, background): “Even now Atlantic salmon is part of the worldwide decline of diadromous fishes (Limburg and Waldman 2009), and, because of extensive farming, could become another auroch, Bos primigenius Bojanus, 1827, (Ajmone-Marsan et al.”
Fish and mussels: Importance of fish for freshwater mussel conservation (2018, background): “…between the number of fish hosts and the IUCN categories of freshwater mussels (n = 164) (adapted from Strayer, 2008) is especially severe for obligate diadromous fish (Clavero & Hermoso, 2015; Liermann et al., 2012; Limburg & Waldman, 2009; Ruckelshaus, Levin, Johnson, & Kareiva, 2002).”
Freshwater eels: A symbol of the effects of global change (2018, background): “2014), fisheries and pollution (McDowall 1999; Limburg and Waldman 2009) have been documented for most of these species.”
Overfishing, disease, habitat loss, and potential extirpation of oysters in upper Chesapeake Bay (2011, background): “Twelve other stocks — 9 from Limburg & Waldman (2009), Halibut in the UK (Thurstan et al. 2010), and Gulf of Alaska Pacific herring and Atlantic cod in NAFO 3NO (Worm et al. 2009) — declined by approximately the same amount as Maryland oysters (i.e. had declines within the 90% CI).”
Centuries of Anadromous Forage Fish Loss: Consequences for Ecosystem Connectivity and Productivity (2012, methodology): “Limburg and Waldman (2009) analyzed 35 long-term anadromous species harvest and abundance data sets for BioScience 62: 723–731.”
State of the world's freshwater ecosystems: physical, chemical, and biological changes. (2011, background): “Dramatic declines in North Atlantic diadromous fishes.”
