A comparison of early marine residence in hatchery and natural Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha)

Creator:: Claiborne, Andrew M.
Abstract:: The mechanisms of mortality during critical life stages of fish are not well-understood and, for many species, it is not clear if the mechanisms are similar for naturally and artificially propagated individuals. For Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), natural fish potentially face negative interactions, such as competition, and survival disadvantages, such...

A comparison of the behavior and survival of juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and steelhead trout (O. mykiss) in a small estuary system

Creator:: Clements, Shaun, Stahl, Thomas, and Schreck, Carl B.
Abstract:: We used radio and acoustic telemetry to study the behavior and survival of wild steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and hatchery coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and steelhead outmigrants in a small coastal estuary during two years. Survival was generally low for hatchery fish but more variable, both within and between years,...

A geographical framework for assessing longitudinal patterns in stream habitat and fish distribution

Creator:: Torgersen, Christian E.
Abstract:: New approaches are needed to quantify and understand spatial patterns of stream fishes and their environment. Concepts in riverine ecology emphasize the importance of thermal zones and gradual longitudinal changes in physical habitat and biota, but little is known about spatial variability within the river continuum. I present a conceptual...

A hierarchical stream habitat classification system: development and demonstration

Creator:: Frissell, Christopher A.
Abstract:: Classification of Streams and stream habitats is useful for research involving establishment of monitoring stations, determining local impacts of land use practices, generalization from site-specific data, and assessment of basin-wide, cumulative impacts of human activities on streams and their biota. This thesis presents a framework for a hierarchical classification system,...

A macroscopic to microscopic study of the effects of barotrauma and the potential for long-term survival in Pacific rockfish

Creator:: Pribyl, Alena L.
Abstract:: Depleted species of rockfish (Sebastes spp.) from the Northeast Pacific experience high discard mortality due to "barotrauma," induced from the rapid change in pressure during capture. Research suggests rockfish have the potential to survive barotrauma if immediately recompressed, but the potential for long-term recovery is unknown. In this project, we...

A morphometric study of growth and condition in juvenile English sole (Pleuronectes vetulus) relative to environment

Creator:: Weber, Madeleine Demaries
Abstract:: This thesis focuses upon whether stressful aspects of an organism's environment are reflected by that organism's shape. It presents an application of the powerful thin-plate spline and relative warp methods from morphometric analysis to demonstrate the overall utility of morphometrics in detecting environmental stress in an estuarine flatfish, the English...

A new species of western Atlantic lizardfish (Teleostei: Synodontidae: Synodus) and resurrection of Synodus bondi Fowler, 1939, as a valid species from the Caribbean with redescriptions of S. bondi, S. foetens (Linnaeus, 1766), and S. intermedius (Agassiz, 1829)

Creator:: Frable, Benjamin W., Baldwin, Carole C., Luther, Brendan M., and Weigt, Lee A.
Abstract:: Western Atlantic synodontid species were studied as part of an ongoing effort to reanalyze Caribbean shorefish diversity. A neighbor-joining tree constructed from cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) data revealed 2 highly divergent genetic lineages within both Synodus intermedius (Agassiz, 1829) (Sand Diver) and S. foetens (Linnaeus, 1766) (Inshore Lizardfish).

A phenotypic comparison of thirty-eight steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) populations from coastal Oregon

Creator:: Hatch, Keith Martin
Abstract:: An aspect of the genetic structure of coastal Oregon steelhead was explored and found to gradually change in a north to south pattern for the allelic frequencies of several enzymes. Isocitrate dehydrogenase and superoxide dehydrogenase were the clearest examples of this pattern of variation. This pattern was most evident in...

A preliminary investigation of the spotted owl in Oregon

Creator:: Forsman, Eric D.
Abstract:: Between 1970 and 1974, data were collected on the distribution and biology of the spotted owl (Strix occidentalis) in Oregon. One-hundred and sixteen pairs and seven single birds were located. Spotted owls occurred throughout the mountains of western Oregon and on the east slope of the Cascade Range at least...

A realignment of marine biogeographic provinces with particular reference to fish distributions

Creator:: Briggs, John C. and Bowen, Brian W.
Abstract:: Marine provinces, founded on contrasting floras or faunas, have been recognized for more than 150 years but were not consistently defined by endemism until 1974. At that time, provinces were based on at least a 10% endemism and nested within biogeographic regions that covered large geographic areas with contrasting biotic...
