Selected Papers from the "VII Iberian Congress of Ichthyology - SIBIC2018 Where rivers meet the ocean"

The VII Congress of the Iberian Society for Ichthyology—SIBIC (Faro, Portugal, 12-16 June, 2018).

Dear Colleagues,

The congress theme, “where rivers meet the ocean”, encompasses all aspects of fish biology, habitat, or resource management, from riverine environments to the open waters of the planet’s oceans. This highlights the Iberian Society for Ichthyology’s (SIBIC) vision to uphold the ecological relevance of fish and promote the transfer of multidisciplinary knowledge across freshwater and marine realms. The conference program features topics such as systematics, phylogeography and evolution, physiology and toxicology, fish behavior and welfare, species and habitat connectivity and conservation, sustainable fisheries and aquaculture, fish models and biotechnology, and science awareness and policy.
