Factors influencing spawning migration of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in the North Fork Skokomish River, Olympic National Park, Washington

Creator:: Brenkman, Samuel J.
Abstract:: Distribution and life history characteristics of lacustrine-adfluvial bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) were described in the North Fork Skokomish River Basin (including Lake Cushman, a reservoir) from 1994 to 1996. Day snorkeling was conducted in the river to determine initiation of the bull trout spawning migration, abundance of spawners, and duration...

Structure, abundance, and distribution of pelagic zooplankton in a deep, oligotrophic Caldera Lake

Creator:: Karnaugh, Elena N.
Abstract:: From July 1985 to April 1987 the pelagic zooplankton community of Crater Lake, Oregon was studied to determine taxonomic structure, absolute and relative densities, and spatial and temporal distributional patterns. Samples were collected using vertically-towed zooplankton nets. The community structure consisted of two cladoceran and nine rotifer species, which were...

Life-history organization of cutthroat trout in Yellowstone Lake and its management implications

Creator:: Gresswell, Robert E.
Abstract:: Life-history organization of the cutthroat trout (Oncorhvnchus clarki) may be viewed at various levels, including species, subspecies, metapopulation, population, or individual. Each level varies in spatial scale and temporal persistence, and components at each level continually change with changes in environment. Cutthroat trout are widely distributed throughout the western USA,...

Habitat segregation of two ambystomatids in mountain ponds, Mount Rainier National Park

Creator:: Brokes, Brendan J.
Abstract:: Ambystoma macrodactylum (long-toed salamander) and A. gracile (northwestern salamander) are two common salamander species occupying key trophic positions in mountain ponds of Mount Rainier National Park. The objective of this research was to document and evaluate the distributions and abundances of the two species, relative to habitat characteristics of ponds...

Epidermal tumors on juvenile English sole (Parophrys vetulus) from Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Koike, Bruce Gary
Abstract:: Juvenile English sole (Parophrys vetulus) were collected in Yaquina Bay, Oregon from January, 1986 to March, 1987. Recruitment of young-of-the-year sole occurred from January to June, 1986 and again from December, 1986 to February, 1987. Emigration from Yaquina Bay started in September, 1986, but a small portion of the English...

Influences of riparian canopy on aquatic communities in high desert streams of eastern Oregon

Creator:: Tait, Cynthia K.
Abstract:: Because riparian canopy controls most energy inputs to stream ecosystems, it directly affects the structure of aquatic food webs and the ecological processes that govern interactions among trophic levels. This study addresses the interdependence among riparian canopy, benthic community structure, and the carrying capacity of high desert streams for salmonid...

Studies on the molluscan and fish hosts of the "salmon poisoning" fluke, Nanophyetus salmincola (Chapin)

Creator:: Gebhardt, Gary Alan.
Abstract:: This study¹ was undertaken: (1) to obtain information on the distribution of the snail, Oxytrema silicula, in three coastal rivers in Oregon, and the seasonal incidence of infection in these snails and in snails from an inland stream, with the cercariae of the trematode, Nanophyetus salinincola; (2) to follow cercarial...

Influences of environmental acidification on salmonid reproduction

Creator:: Weiner, Gary S.
Abstract:: Reproduction of salmonid fishes in acidic water was studied using the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). Adult trout were exposed to various levels of hydrogen ion (pH levels 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, and control [6.5 to 7.1]) during the final 6 weeks of reproductive maturation. Reduced survival rates of the progeny of...

Factors influencing nest success of greater sandhill cranes at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon

Creator:: Ivey, Gary L.
Abstract:: I developed a priori hypotheses and used logistic regression to model Greater Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis tabida) nest success in relation to weather, habitat and management variables for cranes breeding at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge (MNWR) in southeast Oregon. My primary interest was to investigate the effects of habitat conditions...

Comparative wintering ecology of two subspecies of sandhill crane : informing conservation planning in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta region of California

Creator:: Ivey, Gary L.
Abstract:: California's Central Valley agricultural landscapes provide several important wintering regions for Pacific Flyway sandhill crane (Grus canadensis) populations; however, the value of those regions is being compromised by urban expansion, other developments, and conversions to incompatible crop types. Greater (G. c. tabida) and lesser sandhill cranes (G. c. canadensis) both...
