Not all drift feeders are trout: a short review of fitness-based habitat selection models for fishes

摘要: Currently, there are few mechanistic fitness-based habitat selection models for stream fishes and most used by management agencies focus on physical alone. In this review, I describe the historical development status of mechanistic, fitness-based, both water column (i.e., drift-feeding) benthic focusing North America. Although majority drift feeders not salmonids, have been developed tested only in group fishes, likely due to their substantial economic importance. review microhabitat model Grossman et al. (Ecol Fresh Fish 11:2–10, 2002), which has a salmonid multiple cyprinid species. The predicts optimal focal point velocities based prey capture success–velocity relationships does include physiological costs, logistically difficult quantify. addition, discuss predict patch) fishes. For basic scientific management/conservation perspectives, it is important quantify choice using criteria.
