Analysis of a multispecies fishery : the commercial fishery fleet of Iquitos, Amazon Basin, Peru

Creator:: Tello, Salvador
Abstract:: In this study an analysis of the commercial fishery of the Loreto Region, with emphasis on the fishery fleet of Iquitos, Amazon Basin, Peru, is presented. There is evidence of a progressive replacement of large species by smaller, more productive and lower value species in the landing of the commercial...

Behavioral response of juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) to olfactory cues

Creator:: Jonasson, Brian C.
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Ecological relation of sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout in the Deschutes River, Oregon

Creator:: Zimmerman, Christian E.
Abstract:: Sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are known to exist in many rivers throughout the Pacific Rim. Whether sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout are polymorphisms within a single gene pool or two reproductively isolated populations has significant implications concerning the study and conservation of this polytypic species....

Ecology of harlequin ducks in Prince William Sound, Alaska, during summer

Creator:: Dzinbal, Kenneth A.
Abstract:: Harlequin ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus) were observed during the summers of 1979 and 1980 in Sawmill Bay, northeast Prince William Sound, Alaska. Harlequins were associated with a short, medium gradient, non-glacial stream (Stellar Creek) also used by salmon. Although harlequins nested along Stellar Creek, they apparently did not establish home ranges...

Electrofishing mark-recapture and depletion methodologies evoke behavioral and physiological changes in cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki)

Creator:: Mesa, Matthew G.
Abstract:: We examined the behavioral and physiological responses of wild and hatchery-reared cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarki subjected to a single electroshock, electroshock plus marking, and multiple electroshocking in natural and artificial streams. In a natural stream, trout released after capture by electrofishing and marking showed distinct behavioral changes: fish immediately sought...

Energy utilization by young grass carp fed different diets

Creator:: Cai, Zhengwei
Abstract:: Effects of diet on food energy utilization by grass carp fed aquatic plants or formulated diets with varied lipid sources and levels are presented in three manuscripts. Significant effects of diet on food consumption, digestion, growth and muscle fatty acid (FA) composition of fingerling diploid grass carp fed aquatic macrophytes...

Fish assemblage organization in the Amazon River floodplain : species richness, spatial distribution and recruitment processes

Creator:: Petry, Paulo
Abstract:: The composition and distribution of fish assemblages was examined in a floodplain lake system in the Amazon basin. Quantitative samples were collected during the 1992-1993 flooding season at Marchantaria Island, Solimoes River. A total of 25,819 specimens representing 8 orders, 30 families, 101 genera and 139 species of fish were...

From continua to patches : longitudinal patterns in the Middle Fork of the John Day River, Oregon

Creator:: Wright, Kristopher Keith
Abstract:: The Middle Fork John Day River is composed of low gradient, alluvial valley segments separated by constrained, canyon-like reaches, and has a history of multiple land-uses. These factors can alter the physical and biological structure of streams, and disrupt the longitudinal river continuum. I examined habitat, fish, macroinvertebrates, and primary...

Geographic variation in timing of fry emergence and smolt migration of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch)

Creator:: Spence, Brian C.
Abstract:: The timing of two events in the early life history of coho salmon--emergence from the gravel and entry into the ocean--is presumed to have evolved to ensure maximum survival during these transition periods. Anthropogenic disturbances may disrupt the timing of these events to the detriment of salmon populations. Multivariate analyses...

Interaction and behavior of the redside shiner (Richardsonius balteatus) and the steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) in western Oregon : the influence of water temperature

Creator:: Reeves, Gordon H.
Abstract:: Water temperature influenced interactions between redside shiners and juvenile steelhead trout (≥1+) in the field and the laboratory. Distribution of the two species within various habitats was determined in three streams with different water temperature regimes. The range of habitats occupied by trout in allopatry at cool temperatures and at...

Population structure of coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki) in the Muck Creek Basin, Washington

Creator:: Zimmerman, Christian E.
Abstract:: The relationship of coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki) populations in the Muck Creek basin, a 238 km² southern Puget Sound stream basin in western Washington, was examined using starch gel electrophoresis and meristic analysis. Coastal cutthroat trout were collected from six sites throughout the basin including tributaries, portions of...

Seasonal changes in distribution and abundance of salmonids and habitat availability in a coastal Oregon basin

Creator:: Sleeper, Jack David
Abstract:: Visual estimation techniques were used to quantify habitat characteristics, habitat type (pool, riffle) use and longitudinal distribution of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss), cutthroat trout (0. clarki), and coho salmon (0. kisutch) in spring, summer and fall in 8.8 km of Cummins Creek, a basin in the central coast of Oregon. Fish...

Territorial behavior in juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) : how redside shiner (Richardsonius balteatus) influence intraspecific interactions

Creator:: Tinus, Craig A.
Abstract:: Juvenile steelhead are known to associate with shiner groups, though they also compete for food. Steelhead form dominance hierarchies within cohorts and aggressively defend feeding territories against all other fish. This study focused on the differential effect of shiner competition on steelhead of different social standing. Survival of subordinate juvenile...
