Over the past half-century, habitat changes have drastically affected production of northern pike in all over the world. Pike are keystone predators responsible for determining the structure of certain fish community assemblages. Therefore, predicting their habitat needs is critical for river management. This book determines the appropriate variables and ecosystem processes by using a set of data driven models to predict habitat suitability of pike in rivers. To achieve this, the use of suitable ecological modelling methods can be very important to support river management and water policy...
