Bloater ( Coregonus hoyi), extirpated from Lake Ontario in the 1980s, have been stocked annually since 2012 with limited success re-establishing a self-sustaining population. In this study, hatchery-raised juvenile bloater were tagged acoustic telemetry high-resolution predation tags and over three depths (5, 50, 100 m) 2022 2023 to quantify survival, causes of mortality, movement. Time-to-event modelling generated 3-week survival estimate 38% (31%–46%; 95% confidence interval) across both years, lower year 1 (12%; 12%–38%) than 2 (44%; 33%–59%).

Coregonines have specific ecological needs, making them potentially very vulnerable to changes in lake conditions. A contemporary concern is that many lakes worldwide are experiencing environmental due anthropogenic pressure and climate warming. Here, we compiled long-term data of coregonine catches from 27 three continents the northern hemisphere. Declines catch were observed 67% during first two decades 21 st century, with a significant trend (p-value<0.05) 44% cases. An analysis determine whether trends globally linked conditions attributes was carried out on 26 for period 2000–2019. Several local declines had already been documented literature likely be forcing such as nutrients, species invasions fishing practices. Nevertheless, global scale, our results indicate lakes, which exhibited decrease larger more nutrient-poor than other lakes. The rate change appeared related trophic state lake. effect warming difficult studied period.
