Fish on the Move

Image
Our full time bloggers are recovering from the  FCE-LTER Beach BBQ  this weekend so we've asked Mike Bush from the Department of Biology to talk about his research on fish movement in the Everglades. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Identifying patterns of animal movement is an important part of most conservation programs. As Everglades restoration continues, identifying how fishes respond to changes in water flow, removal of levees, etc. will provide us with important information about how restoration is changing the Everglades. I’m going to briefly discuss some of my work with large fish movement in the central Everglades.
