Movement Patterns of Rockfishes at the Redfish Rocks Marine Reserve, Oregon

Creator:: Calvanese, Thomas P.
Abstract:: The effects of Marine protected areas (MPAs) on adult fish populations depend on the degree of protection provided, which is partly a function of MPA size and the spatial extent of fish movements. The Redfish Rocks Marine Reserve (RRMR) and MPA, located on the south coast of Oregon near Port...

The Ecophysiology of Thiamine Deficiency Complex : Evaluating Sources of Thiaminase in Great Lakes Food Webs

Creator:: Evans, Allison N.
Abstract:: Thiamine (vitamin B₁) is required by all living organisms for carbohydrate metabolism and synthesis of amino acids. Thiamine deficiency is responsible for several related classes of early life stage mortality disorders in salmonines, including Thiamine Deficiency Complex (TDC) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, Cayuga Syndrome in the Finger Lakes, and...

Early post-restoration recovery of tidal wetland structure and function at the Southern Flow Corridor project, Tillamook Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Janousek, Christopher, Bailey, Scott, van de Wetering, Stan, Brophy, Laura, Bridgham, Scott, Schultz, Matthew, and Tice-Lewis, Maxwell
Abstract:: A substantial fraction of estuarine tidal wetlands have been lost to development or other human uses in the Pacific Northwest since the 1800s. Wetland restoration, typically through tidal re-connection, can restore normal tidal hydrology to these areas and improve estuarine capacity to support ecosystem functions and services. Restoration may initiate...

Spatial Association of Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) and their Prey in the Southern Gulf of Maine, USA

Creator:: Kirchner, Theresa
Abstract:: Efficient foraging strategies result in a predator spatially overlapping with its prey, foraging in the most profitable patches, and minimizing the time transiting between patches. Previous studies investigating baleen whale foraging strategies have generally focused on investigating spatial overlap with prey patches, patch profitability or movement within feeding grounds. The...

Elemental Markers in Elasmobranchs: Effects of Environmental History and Growth on Vertebral Chemistry

Creator:: Smith, Wade D., Miller, Jessica A., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: Differences in the chemical composition of calcified skeletal structures (e.g. shells, otoliths) have proven useful for reconstructing the environmental history of many marine species. However, the extent to which ambient environmental conditions can be inferred from the elemental signatures within the vertebrae of elasmobranchs (sharks, skates, rays) has not been...

The influence of some environmental factors on the distribution of fishes in Upper Klamath Lake

Creator:: Vincent, David Thomas
Abstract:: The fishes of Upper Klamath Lake appeared to distribute themselves in three general groups during the summers of 1964 and 1965: (1) the chubs--unrestricted as to distribution with slight seasonal variations; (2) rainbow trout and yellow perch -- restricted to certain water conditions that exist only along the northern marsh...

Vertebral elemental markers in elasmobranchs : potential for reconstructing environmental history and population structure

Creator:: Smith, Wade D.
Abstract:: Differences in the chemical composition of calcified structures can be used to reveal natal origins, connectivity, metapopulation structure, and reconstruct the environmental history or movement patterns of many marine organisms. Sharks, skates, and rays (elasmobranchs) lack the calcified structures, known as otoliths, that are typically used for geochemical studies of...

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...

Post-hatching survival and productivity of American avocets at drainwater evaporation ponds in the Tulare Basin, California

Creator:: Marn, Carolyn M. (Carolyn Mary), 1962-
Abstract:: Evaporation ponds that dispose of agricultural drainwater provide attractive habitat for waterbirds but may result in contaminant exposure that impairs reproduction. I estimated post-hatching survival and evaluated productivity estimates for American avocets (Recurvirostra americana) nesting at evaporation ponds in the Tulare Basin, California from 1991 to 1993. Avocets and Black-necked...

How Behavior, Physiology, and Ontogeny of Klamath Redband Trout Shape the Functionality of Habitats in a Landscape of Temperature Extremes

Creator:: Hahlbeck, Nicholas J.
Abstract:: Climate change is a global phenomenon, but natural selection occurs within landscapes. A central tenet of landscape ecology is that mobile species depend on complementary habitats, which are insufficient in isolation, but combine to support animals through the full annual cycle. For coldwater fishes, it is widely assumed that maximum...
