The Oregon Coastal Subprovince, a new biogeographic subprovince for primary freshwater fishes in Oregon

Creator:: Kettratad, Jes
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest has a relatively low diversity of primary freshwater fishes with most of the endemism and diversity in the Columbia River and Klamath River. However, the Oregon Coastal Subprovince defined as the coastal rivers from Miami River in the north to Sixes River in the south, has a...

Modeling Fine-scale Avian Distributions and Densities with Multi-scale Models: Predicting the Past and Present

Creator:: Hallman, Tyler A.
Abstract:: Models of a species’ distribution and models of a species’ spatially explicit density are valuable tools for conservation. They allow researchers to estimate changes in distributions, densities, and populations, based on changing environmental conditions. To trust such estimates, however, the quality of models is exceedingly important. Model performance can be...

Patterns of retention and vagrancy in larval Lost River and shortnose suckers from Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon

Creator:: Reithel, Susan A.
Abstract:: Larval transport and retention of two endangered suckers were studied in a highly altered lacustrine/riverine complex. The endangered populations of Lost River sucker, Deltistes luxatus, and shortnose sucker, Chasmistes brevirostris, in Upper Klamath Lake (UKL), Oregon are the largest remnant populations of these suckers. Downstream of UKL, the Keno Impoundment...

Taxonomy and systematic relationships of tui chubs (Siphateles: Cyprinidae) from Oregon's Great Basin

Creator:: Remple, Stacy L.
Abstract:: There are three recognized species of Siphateles from the Great Basin; S. alvordensis, S. boraxobius and the tui chub, S. bicolor. One species, S. boraxobius, is endangered and one population of tui chub at Hutton Spring is threatened. Despite several morphological and molecular studies, the taxonomy and relationships of tui...

Human Alteration of a Neotropical Landscape Drives Long-term Changes in its Forest Bird Communities

Creator:: Curtis, Jenna R.
Abstract:: Human alteration of natural landscapes leads to biodiversity loss, often from a combination of area effects and fragmentation effects. Smaller habitat patches support fewer species than large ones and incur additional consequences from isolation. Efforts to preempt biodiversity loss from insular habitat fragments are complicated by individualistic species responses and...

Metamorphosis, growth, and settlement of Pacific sanddab (Citharichthys sordidus) to a continental shelf nursery, inferred from otolith microstructure

Creator:: Donohoe, Christopher James
Abstract:: Processes of metamorphosis, settlement, and growth were examined in Pacific sanddab using field studies and otolith microstructure. This flatfish transforms at large sizes, has a gradual metamorphosis, and settles to a nursery on the middle continental shelf. Eye migration takes 3 months and "metamorphosis proper" which begins after completion of...

A review and key to the apogonid fishes (Pisces: Perciformes) of the Northwestern Arabian Sea and Southern Gulf of Oman, with description of two new species

Creator:: Mee, Jonathan K. L.
Abstract:: Field collections in the Southern Gulf of Oman and the Northwestern Arabian Sea, and examination of museum collections from this study area, yielded 7 genera and 33 species of apogonid fishes. Twenty one species of Apogon, one Archamia, four Cheilodipterus, three Fowleria, one Rhabdamia, two Siphamia, and one Holapogon are...

Ontogeny and metamorphosis in the Dover sole (Microstomus pacificus) : a description of the early life history stages, with comments on the sister-group relationship between Microstomus and Embassichthys

Creator:: Harris, Phillip M.
Abstract:: The early life history stages and metamorphosis in Dover sole (Microstomus pacificus) are described from 201 larvae and juveniles. Unlike other pleuronectids, with the possible exception of the deep-sea sole (Embassichthvs bathvbius), initial migration of the left eye is not associated with metamorphosis or transition from plankton to benthos. The...

Evaluating desiccated cyanobacteria Aphanizomenon flos-aquae for use as a biofertilizer on Swiss Chard

Creator:: Turk, Douglas E.
Abstract:: Non-toxic species of desiccated blue-green algae, or cyanobacteria, may offer potential for use as a fertilizer on irrigated crops. Here, the non-toxic cyanobacteria species Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), collected from Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, was evaluated for use as a biofertilizer in a controlled experiment on Swiss chard “Bright Lights” (Beta...

Size-structured spatial patterns as a measure of larval dispersal and emigration

Creator:: Markle, Douglas F.
Abstract:: Size-structured spatial patterns in larvae of 2 sucker and 3 minnow species are described from fixed-site sampling in Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, and are used to demonstrate patterns of size-based losses downstream and retention in the lake. The smallest larvae of shortnose suckers (Chasmistes brevirostris), Lost River suckers (Deltistes luxatus),...
