Title Giving Fish More Energy without Giving Them More Food: Can Streambed Topography Influence a Fish's Net Rate of Energy Intake?
Creator Wall, C. Eric Bouwes, Nick Bennett, Stephen Wheaton, Joseph M. Camp, Reid
Description A number of researchers have attempted to predict profitable foraging positions for drift-feeding fishes by combining process-based foraging models with spatially explicit hydraulic models. The foraging model component allows for estimates of energy intake while energy expenditure is estimated using the depth and velocity information provided by the hydraulic model. Subtracting energy expenditure from energy intake for a number of locations within the area of interest yields spatially...
