📊 Hutchinson gave us the #niche as an n-dimensional hypervolume. It works just as well for one individual as for one species. Dr. Elina Takola's new paper shows individualised niches estimated from tracking #data, demonstrated on 13 northern #lapwings in Western Europe: doi.org/10.3897/ibe....

🤩New methods paper! IBASAM (Individual Based Anadromous SAlmonids Model) opens up new opportunities for research on the response of salmonid meta-populations to environmental changes, the exploration of management practices, with further developments possible. See more here: doi.org/10.3897/ibe....

Infographic illustrating a model of salmonid eco-evolutionary responses to environmental and human-induced changes. The diagram is divided into four main columns: Entities, Submodels, Observations, and Scenarios.

Entities include individuals like fish, redds (egg nests), and fry siblings, as well as spatial units like rivers, sea regions, weirs, and populations.

Submodels (center panel) represent a daily cycle of salmonid life processes, including reproduction, emergence, growth, survival, maturation, movement, and fishing, both in rivers and at sea. Arrows indicate migratory and developmental paths, with key processes labeled 1–10.

Observations detail population-level metrics such as abundance, sex ratio, allele frequency, and migration dates over time, along with individual-level traits like growth curves.

Scenarios at the bottom show the effects of selective fishing, climate change (with warming projections RCP 2.6 to RCP 8.5), and connectivity (e.g., dam passability) on salmonid populations.
