An Evaluation of Collaborative Salmon Fishery Management in Prince William Sound, Alaska

Creator:: Sheridan, Thomas M.
Abstract:: Collaborative decision-making is often promoted as a means to achieve socially acceptable and enduring solutions to natural resource management issues, and one that holds promise for resolving “wicked” problems. However, success rates for implementation of collaborative recommendations are unknown. This paper explores challenges to collaborative salmon fishery management in Prince...

Genetic diversity in coastal cutthroat trout and Dolly Varden in Prince William Sound, Alaska

Creator:: Griswold, Kitty E.
Abstract:: Genetic diversity of two salmonid species, Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) and coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki) in Prince William Sound, Alaska were examined at multiple spatial scales with three molecular markers. Pleistocene glaciers covered what is now Prince William Sound 8,000- 12,000 years ago and both species colonized the...

Geographic variation in genetic and meristic characters of coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki clarki)

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...

Patterns of distribution, abundance, and change over time in the marine bird community of Prince William Sound, Alaska, 1989-2012

Creator:: Cushing, Daniel A.
Abstract:: Over recent decades, the marine ecosystems of Prince William Sound (PWS), Alaska have experienced the concurrent effects of a major anthropogenic disturbance, the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill (EVOS), and a dynamic atmospheric-oceanic environment. Studies of top marine consumers can provide insights into processes of ecosystem change. Using data collected...

A model for understanding the influence of selective and nonselective harvest on fish populations

Creator:: Hirai, Takayuki
Abstract:: To understand the influence of selective harvesting on the adaptive capacity of fish populations in changing environments, a computer simulation model was developed. In the model, hypothetical populations were composed of five different life histories, which were genetically determined. Each life history type had its own rate of survival and...

Behavioral constraints on harlequin duck population recovery from the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Prince William Sound, Alaska

Creator:: Rizzolo, Daniel J.
Abstract:: I investigated the relationship between harlequin duck (Histrionicus histrionicus) behavior and lack of recovery from the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Prince William Sound, Alaska. First, I evaluated the hypothesis that harlequin ducks in winter have little flexibility to increase foraging time in response to disturbance because they are constrained...

Quality of salmon fry from gravel incubators

Creator:: Poon, Derek Clinton
Abstract:: The performances of newly-established gravel incubation systems designed to use unfiltered water for production of unfed salmon fry were evaluated at Netarts Bay, Oregon, and at Little Port Walter, Alaska. Research was divided into two phases. The first consisted of laboratory studies to develop fry quality testing procedures and to...

Life-history organization of herring (Clupea harengus pallasi) in the northeast Pacific

Creator:: Aleaziz, Farzad
Abstract:: The distribution of herring (Clupea harengus pallasi) in the Northeast Pacific extends from southern California to northern Alaska. Studies on variation in herring life-history are limited to local characteristics and recruitment populations or relatively restricted regions of the Northeast Pacific. In this study I assessed herring life-history patterns and recruitment...

Spatial and temporal distribution of juvenile Steller sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus) predation events in the Gulf of Alaska

Creator:: Vazquez, Norma A.
Abstract:: The first objective of this study was to quantify the intensity of space use of 70 juvenile (12-26 months old) Steller sea lions (SSLs) from the western Distinct Population Segment (DPS) in the Kenai Fjord(KF)/Prince William Sound (PWS) region of Alaska as derived from externally attached ARGOS satellite transmitter tags....
