Effects of acute stress and tagging on the swimming performance and physiology of Pacific lampreys (Lampetra tridentata)

Creator:: Close, David A.
Abstract:: Pacific lampreys (Lampetra tridentata) have declined in abundance in the Columbia River Basin. Although, the reasons for the decline are unclear, we suggest that development of hydroelectric dams and habitat alterations in tributaries as the main causes. The available knowledge of life history of Pacific lampreys and status from dam...

Characterization of pools and reaches with salmonid species in the Alsea and Nestucca Sub-Basins

Creator:: McKinney, Shaun P.
Abstract:: Streams in the Alsea and Nestucca Sub-Basins were characterized using suites of habitat attributes at the pool and reach scales. These suites were analyzed using a multivariate process with the Multiple Response Permutation Procedure (MRPP) to test for differences in groups. There were differences in the suite of habitat variables...

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...

Seasonal life history of Oncorhynchus mykiss in the South Fork John Day River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Tattam, Ian A.
Abstract:: Understanding seasonal changes in growth, survival, and movement rates is crucial to salmonid management. These life history characteristics provide a context for evaluation of management actions. We evaluated the life history of individually marked Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri in the South Fork John Day River basin in Northeastern Oregon. This thesis...

Relationships between fish species distribution and habitat in the Willamette River drainage in western Oregon

Creator:: Kruse, Amy Ellen
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to (1) describe physical environmental conditions and species composition at several sites along an Upstream/downstream gradient in a number of tributaries of the Willamette River in western Oregon; and (2) identify possible relationships between species distributional patterns and physical habitat parameters using detrended correspondence...

Aspects of the early life history of juvenile salmonids in the Dungeness River Estuary

Creator:: Sather, Nichole K.
Abstract:: The decline of many Pacific salmon stocks has stimulated interest in the early life history and habitat requirements of juvenile salmon. Although estuarine habitat associations of juvenile salmon have been investigated in many coastal areas of the eastern Pacific Ocean, until recently, little was known about juvenile salmonid ecology within...

Distribution, habitat use, and growth of juvenile Chinook salmon in the Metolius River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Lovtang, Jens C.
Abstract:: Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) have been absent from their historic spawning and rearing grounds in the Metolius River Basin in central Oregon since 1968, when fish passage was terminated at the Pelton Round Butte Hydroelectric Project on the Deschutes River. Plans have been developed to reestablish passage of anadromous fish...

Biophysical factors driving the distribution and abundance of redband/steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River Basin, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Madriñán, Luis Francisco
Abstract:: The overall goal of this study was to identify multiple scales of habitat use and habitat electivity by redband/steelhead trout and define the limiting factors affecting the distribution patterns of this species during summer flows. The main objective in chapter 2 was to identify the most important habitat associations that...

Variation in mitochondrial DNA and allozymes discriminates early and late forms of chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Kenai and Kasilof Rivers, Alaska

Creator:: Adams, Noah Swayambhu
Abstract:: Genetic differences between early and late forms of Alaskan chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were identified using two genetic approaches: mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis and protein electrophoresis. The study populations consisted of early- and late-run chinook salmon in each of the Kenai and Kasilof rivers in Alaska, and a single population...
