Check out our latest paper where we found that European #catfish 🐱🐟 aren't sedentary at all! In fact, they can travel tens of kilometers in a river catchment! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Celebrating a year of hard work AND the end of an era! Sara retired at the end of 2023 and Fred will step down later this month. Thanks for leading OTN for 15 years. It will always be “another day in paradise” because of you!

New paper👆 urging for knowledge on the potential impact of EMFs 🧲 by subsea power cables⚡️on diadromous fish 🐟 migration. There are many knowledge gaps, while the demand for renewable energy is rising and so is the construction of offshore wind
