Effects of Elevated CO₂ on Speckled Sanddab (Citharichthys stigmaeus) Behavior

Creator:: Andrade, Jessica F.
Abstract:: The direct and indirect effects of ocean acidification (OA) are a growing concern, particularly in areas already experiencing elevated levels of oceanic CO₂. Studies with marine fishes suggest that elevated CO₂ levels may affect behavior by interfering with an important brain neurotransmitter. Studies examining the effects of OA fish behavior...

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...

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...

Mercury accumulation in fish from Cottage Grove Reservoir and its tributaries

Creator:: Worcester, Thomas C
Abstract:: A fish sampling program was initiated at Cottage Grove Reservoir in June of 1974 to investigate mercury accumulation in the fish. Samples were collected periodicallv from June to November, 1974, and from June, 1975 through January, 1976 from both the reservoir and its tributaries. Species collected included spring chinook salmon...

Population ecology of the Columbian white-tailed deer

Creator:: Gavin, Thomas Alan
Abstract:: A population of Columbian white-tailed deer (CWTD) was studied on a refuge (790 ha) in southwestern Washington during 1972-77. Quality of habitat was considered good for these deer and total population size remained between 164-230 as determined by mark-recapture methods during November. Population size declined significantly between the winters of...

Productivity and nesting habitat of Great Basin Canada geese : Umatilla National Wildlife Refuge

Creator:: McCabe, Thomas R.
Abstract:: Great Basin Canada goose (Branta canadensis moffitti) productivity and nesting habitat utilization were studied on the Columbia River within the boundaries of the Umatilla National Wildlife Refuge during the springs of 1974 and 1975. Five islands, BL-1, BL-2, SD-1, SD-2, and Telegraph Island (TI), contained 88 percent of the nesting...

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...

Natal source contributions of Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) recruits in the southeastern Bering Sea

Creator:: DiMaria, Ruth A.
Abstract:: Effective and sustainable fisheries management not only depends on identifying and defining stocks (fundamental unit of management), but also on having knowledge of factors influencing the abundance, distribution and connectivity of stocks. Population structure of Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) in the southeastern Bering Sea (EBS) remains unresolved although genetic data...

An Integrated Approach to the Investigation of Age, Growth and Population Dynamics of Burrowing Thalassinidean Shrimps in a U.S. West Coast Estuary

Creator:: Bosley, Katelyn Marie
Abstract:: Two indigenous species of burrowing shrimp inhabit and often dominate the intertidal zone of estuaries along the US West Coast, the ghost shrimp, Neotrypaea californiensis, and the blue mud shrimp, Upogebia pugettensis. Both species are considered ecosystem engineers and play a role in maintaining estuarine health and ecosystem function. They...

Divergent anti-predator strategies and risk allocation in juveniles of three NorthPacific flatfishes

Creator:: Boersma, Kate S.
Abstract:: Frequent or lengthy predation risk can cause one of two modifications of prey feeding behavior: 1) postponement of feeding to less risky periods, or 2) resumption of feeding behavior despite persistent risk. North Pacific flatfishes exhibit both of these responses when confronted with temporal variation in risk, and this experimental...
