The paper uses otolith chemistry to infer regional connectivity and partial residency of capelin in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, revealing dispersal and regional spawning fidelity.

This study compares walleye populations in degraded and non-degraded lakes, finding that young-of-the-year grow faster in degraded lakes due to abundant zooplankton, but adult mortality compromises population stability.

The paper investigates how copy number variants (CNVs) drive genetic structure in capelin, finding associations with fitness traits, temperature, and population divergence, contrasting with SNP-based results.

This study shows that standing genetic variation and chromosomal rearrangements contribute to local adaptation in capelin despite high gene flow.
