Movement patterns and habitat utilisation of the endangered eastern freshwater cod, Maccullochella ikei Rowland

该项目旨在量化濒临灭绝的东部淡水鳕鱼（Maccullochella ikei）在幼虫、幼鱼、成鱼和历史水平上的活动模式和栖息地利用情况。以前大多数关于鱼类生活史的研究都未能采用这种整体方法，管理往往基于碎片化的信息。该项目还将深入了解澳大利亚东部最不为人所知的沿海溪流鱼类之一的生物学，并协助确保保护这种濒危物种，并为未来研究世界范围内淡水鱼物种的生活史提供一个框架。

The project aims to quantify the movement patterns and habitat utilisation of the endangered eastern freshwater cod (Maccullochella ikei) at a larval, juvenile, adult and historical level. Most previous studies regarding the life-history of fish species have failed to adopt this holistic approach, with management often based on fragmented information. The project will also provide an insight into the biology of one of the most poorly understood coastal stream fishes of eastern-Australia and assist in ensuring the conservation of this endangered species, and offer a framework from which future studies into the life history of freshwater fish species worldwide can be based.
