Catch shares, fisheries, and ecological stewardship: a comparative analysis of resource responses to a rights-based policy instrument

Creator:: Essington, Timothy E., Melnychuk, Michael C., Branch, Trevor A., Heppell, Selina S., Jensen, Olaf P., Link, Jason S., Martell, Steven J. D., Parma, Ana M., Pope, John G., and Smith, Anthony D. M.
Abstract:: Rights-based approaches are potentially promising tools to meet conservation objectives in natural resource management. Here, we evaluated how population status and fishery production respond to catch shares, a rights-based policy instrument in fisheries whereby participants are granted a right to harvest a fraction of the allowable catch. By analyzing time...

The Influence of Alternate Life History Strategies and Natal Conditions on the Reproductive Performance of Adélie Penguins Breeding on Ross Island, Antarctica

Creator:: Kappes, Peter J.
Abstract:: A fundamental objective of ecology and population biology is to identify factors that drive population dynamics and determine the population-level consequences of their interaction with the environment. Studies of reproductive performance can illuminate population dynamic processes, including the links between organismal biology, the environment, and life history theory. A central...

The Primacy of Mammals as Seed Dispersers and Predators in Salmon-Bearing Ecosystems

Creator:: Harrer, Laurie E. F.
Abstract:: Plants often encase seeds in a nutritional reward to incentivize seed dispersal by birds and mammals, but these seeds may also be removed and destroyed by seed predators. Although birds are typically thought to be the primary seed dispersers of berries in temperate systems, in southeast Alaska and other salmon-bearing...

Historic Survival Rates and Cause-Specific Mortality for Columbian Black-Tailed Deer in Southwest Oregon

Creator:: Groot, Kevyn A.
Abstract:: In contrast with other Odocoileus species, Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) population dynamics are not well understood throughout the species’ range. Concerns over apparent long-term population declines have prompted efforts to fill basic knowledge gaps including estimates of vital rates (fecundity, recruitment and survival) and cause-specific mortality. The Oregon...

An analysis of the population dynamics of selected avian species

Creator:: Henny, Charles J.
Abstract:: The impact that pesticides may have had on the mortality rates and productivity rates of non-game birds during the last 25 years was evaluated by studying the population dynamics of 16 species. A mathematical model showing the relationships between population parameters that yielded stable populations was developed. The information needed...

The effects of electroshock on immune function and disease progression in juvenile spring chinook salmon

Creator:: VanderKooi, Scott P., Maule, Alec G., and Schreck, Carl B.
Abstract:: Although much is known about the effects of electroshock on fish physiology, consequences to the immune system and disease progression have not received attention. Our objectives were to determine the effects of electroshock on selected immune function in juvenile spring chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, the mechanism of any observed alteration,...

Individual condition and stream temperature influence early maturation of rainbow and steelhead trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss

Creator:: McMillan, John R., Dunham, Jason B., Reeves, Gordon H., Mills, Justin S., and Jordan, Chris E.
Abstract:: Alternative male phenotypes in salmonine fishes arise from individuals that mature as larger and older anadromous marine-migrants or as smaller and younger freshwater residents. To better understand the processes influencing the expression of these phenotypes we examined the influences of growth in length (fork length) and whole body lipid content...

Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) Calling Behavior In Southeast Alaska : A Study In Acoustic Ecology And Noise

Creator:: Fournet, Michelle E. H.
Abstract:: Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are a widely distributed baleen whale species, well known for their diverse acoustic behavior. On high-latitude foraging grounds, humpback whales produce a suite of non-song vocalizations (“calls”) in concert with foraging and social behavior. In this dissertation I investigated the role of calls in the acoustic...

Growth of juvenile Pacific oysters, Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg) and Manila clams, Tapes japonica (Deshayes) in effluent from salmon-macroalga polyculture system

Creator:: Diaz, Maria Elena, 1958-
Abstract:: Experiments were carried out in fall and winter, 1990 and spring and summer, 1991 , to determine growth and mortality of juvenile Pacific oysters {Crassostrea gigas) in effluent from cultured coho salmon {Oncorhynchus kisutch) , and effluent from salmon in which the red macroalga Palmaria mollis was cultured. Ambient sea...
