Unmasking the impacts and consequences of environmental changes on partially migrating fish populations

Migrating Fish-01-01 (003).png

Students: Thirun Gawarammana (University of Adelaide)​

Supervisor: Bronwyn Gillanders, Patrick Reis-Santos (University of Adelaide)

Project overview

Migration is fundamental to the life history of many fish species. In some populations of fish, only a proportion of individuals move while others remain as residents. The dynamics of how this partial migration changes is largely unknown.

 

This project will utilise cutting-edge techniques to investigate how broad-scale changes to the environment influence
the proportion of migrants in a partially migrating fish population. The outcomes of this project will provide insight to managing and preserving diversity in migratory life-histories under future climate change
