Genetic Connectivity of Dungeness Crab (Cancer magister) in the California Current System and Puget Sound

Creator:: Jackson, Tyler M.
Abstract:: Understanding connectivity among exploited populations is critical to their sustainable management and long-term viability. In the marine environment, estimates of connectivity often rely on the use of genetic markers, as dispersal primarily occurs during a planktonic larval phase which is difficult to track using direct methods. In this thesis, we...

The effects of water withdrawals on the emergence timing, adult body mass, and total emerging biomass of aquatic insects from two northeast Oregon rivers

Creator:: Brown, Phil D.
Abstract:: Small low-head diversion dams are capable of removing much of the flow of a river, often resulting in increased water temperatures and habitat loss. Warmer temperatures have been shown to accelerate aquatic invertebrate growth and development, and discharge reductions can reduce instream habitat, suggesting that water withdrawals may alter both...

Identification of optimal broodstock for Pacific Northwest oysters

Creator:: Stick, David A.
Abstract:: The United States Pacific Northwest is well known for its shellfish farming. Historically, commercial harvests were dominated by the native Olympia oyster, Ostrea lurida, but over-exploitation, habitat degradation, and competition and predation by non-native species has drastically depleted their densities and extirpated many local populations. As a result, shellfish aquaculture...

Microhabitat utilization by juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in relation to stream discharges in the lower American River of California

Creator:: Jackson, Terry A.
Abstract:: Habitats for juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were observed at a high flow during the spring of 1989 and at a low flow during the spring of 1991 in the lower American River of California. Parameters of microhabitats in eight macrohabitats were measured. Mean column water velocity and total water...

The status and life history traits of endemic, native and introduced species in Lake Lanao, Philippines

Creator:: Ismail, Gladys B.
Abstract:: The endemic cyprinids of Lake Lanao, Philippines have been described as a species flock and are thought to be an example of explosive evolution. However, based on historical surveys, 16 of the 18 cyprinid species endemic to Lake Lanao are now believed to be extinct. Furthermore, non-native species have been...

Beyond the Benthos: The effects of stream restoration on habitat complexity and aquatic and riparian macroinvertebrate assemblages

Creator:: Lotz, Kelsey L.
Abstract:: Aquatic and riparian systems in the western United States have been highly modified by anthropogenic impacts since Euro-American settlement. Ecological restoration is a practice that has been widely conducted around the world to mitigate the degradation of these systems. The majority of stream restoration efforts have focused on improving in-stream...

Reconnecting aquatic habitats : validating historical habitat use by anadromous fishes using telemetry and stable isotope analysis above barriers

Creator:: Lewis, Sierra Koch
Abstract:: I conducted a study to identify potential spawning habitat for anadromous salmonids above a 60-year-old hydropower dam in the headwaters of the North Umpqua River in Oregon. Like many other historical salmonid-bearing rivers, little documentation exists for anadromous fish presence above potential natural obstacles upstream of Soda Springs Dam. My...

Survival and behavior of juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in two small estuaries in Oregon

Creator:: Romer, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: A number of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) populations are at risk throughout Oregon, including five populations that are federally listed as threatened or endangered. However, little is known about behavior and survival of these fish as they transition from freshwater to seawater. We investigated whether estuarine survival varies on a temporal...

Comparing Migratory Patterns and Survival Between Wild and Wild Fish Surrogate Juvenile Spring Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha)

Creator:: Pollock, Amanda M. M.
Abstract:: Anadromous salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest have declined over the past 150 years. In 1999, wild spring Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were federally listed as threatened within the Willamette Basin, OR. Currently, practices to restore wild populations in the upper Willamette Basin involve trapping wild adults at the base...

The effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies

Creator:: Miller, Scott W.
Abstract:: I used current water management practices in central and eastern Oregon and Washington as natural experiments to quantify the effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies. Reduced discharge had direct (e.g. decreased velocity and wetted habitat) and indirect (e.g. increased conductivity and temperature) effects...
