Overview

Charles F. B. Holmes is affiliated with the University of Alberta in Canada. Their research focuses primarily on environmental science and agricultural and biological sciences, with an emphasis on nature and landscape conservation, aquatic science, and ecology.

Their work covers several key topics, including:

  • Fish Ecology and Management Studies
  • Fish Biology and Ecology Studies
  • Aquatic Invertebrate Ecology and Behavior

Holmes has frequently published in the Transactions of the American Fisheries Society. Their recent paper, "Migration of freshwater fish species and passage at a dam using a novel fishway," was published in 2025 in this journal.

Frequent coauthors contributing alongside Holmes include:

  • Boyd Kynard
  • Kevin L. Pangle
  • Jerry Eugene Sweeten
  • Kyle Boone
  • Herb Manifold

Their research reflects an interdisciplinary approach connecting aquatic ecosystem management with conservation principles. The study of fish migration and passage at dams is indicative of their involvement in applied ecological challenges affecting freshwater species.

Holmes's contributions address environmental dynamics and biological interactions within aquatic environments, relevant to both conservation efforts and the sustainable management of freshwater resources.
