Growth plasticity of the southern Iberian barbel along longitudinal gradients in a highly regulated Mediterranean basin.

Human induced flow regulation has been suggested as a driver of life history differences among freshwater fish populations. The purpose of the present study is to assess the influence of hydrological flow variability along the longitudinal gradient in the age structure and annual growth rates of a s...
