The Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) populations of Windermere, UK: population trends associated with eutrophication, climate change and increased abundance of roach (Rutilus rutilus) (2008, result): “In contrast, it seems more likely that the roach expansion in Windermere is the result of the recent temperature increase which is of a magnitude similar to that identified elsewhere in the UK as being associated with the production of strong year classes of this cyprinid ( Nunn et al. 2003 ).”
Fish, climate and the Gulf Stream: the influence of abiotic factors on the recruitment success of cyprinid fishes in lowland rivers (2007, methodology): “River discharge may negatively influence recruitment success of riverine fish populations either directly (through dischargeinduced mortality) or indirectly (via reduced growth at lower water temperatures, discharge-associated increases in energy expenditure or reduced food availability) (Nunn et al”
Ecology of European Barbel Barbus Barbus: Implications for River, Fishery, and Conservation Management (2011, background): “For example, studies on the recruitment of other riverine cyprinid fishes have revealed the importance of the regulatory effects of temperature and flow (e.g., Nunn et al., 2003, 2007), but within these studies, samples of barbel were insufficiently small to enable further analysis.”
