Creator:: Ramirez, Ben S.
Abstract:: In the Pacific Northwest ecoregion of North America, sculpins represent a major constituent of freshwater assemblages in coastal rivers. Based on their prevalence and abundance, sculpins are likely important ecologically, yet little is known of their interactions with co-occurring species, such as widely studied salmon and trout (salmonines). In this...

Creator:: Guy, Troy J.
Abstract:: Although the effects of extrinsic barriers to dispersal have increasingly been shown to play a large role in the structuring of contemporary genetic diversity, describing the relationship between landscape structure, stochastic disturbance, and genetic diversity remains a major challenge. Here, environmental features for 27 barrier-isolated populations (2,232 individuals) of coastal...

Creator:: Williams, Thomas Herbert
Abstract:: Understanding how populations within a species interact across various geographic and temporal scales is fundamental to developing appropriate conservation strategies. I examined the geographic variation in genetic and meristic characters of coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki) based on approximately 1,400 fish sampled from 54 populations spanning their distributional range...

Creator:: Romero, Nicolas
Abstract:: Current riparian management objectives in the Pacific Northwest promote both retention of existing conifers and conversion of hardwood-dominated areas to conifers. Although understanding of relationships between riparian vegetation and salmonid prey availability is growing, temporal variation in these relationships is poorly understood. Seasonal fluxes in availability of aquatic and terrestrial...

Creator:: Wofford, John E.B.
Abstract:: Because human land use activities often result in increased fragmentation of headwater stream habitats, a better understanding of the effects of fragmentation on the genetic heterogeneity of stream salmonids is useful for effective management. We used eight microsatellites to examine the genetic structure of potamodromous coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki...

Full Text:: Influencing Within-Watershed Genetic Variation of Coastal Cutthroat Trout in Camp Creek, Oregon. Abstract

Creator:: Connolly, Patrick John, 1955-
Abstract:: Populations of coastal cutthroat trout, Oncorhynchus clarki clarki, were sampled in 16 headwater streams from logged (20-30 and 40-60 years ago) and unlogged (stand age 125-150 years) basins. Basins logged 20-30 years ago supported the widest range of mean biomass of age 1+ or older cutthroat trout (g/m2) and the...
