Survival and behavior of juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in two small estuaries in Oregon

Creator:: Romer, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: A number of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) populations are at risk throughout Oregon, including five populations that are federally listed as threatened or endangered. However, little is known about behavior and survival of these fish as they transition from freshwater to seawater. We investigated whether estuarine survival varies on a temporal...

Cool, pathogen free refuge lowers pathogen associated prespawn mortality of Willamette River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha)

Creator:: Benda, Susan
Abstract:: Spring Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, are transported above dams in the Willamette River to provide access to blocked spawning habitat. However, 30-95% of these transplants may die before spawning in some years. To varying degrees, salmon in other tributaries--both blocked and unblocked--have similar prespawn mortality (PSM). Our study determined if...

Immune responses of juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) to p,p-̓DDE and tributyltin

Creator:: Misumi, Ichiro
Abstract:: In this thesis, we examined the effects of the exposures to anthropogenic pollutants on the fish, primarily juvenile chinook salmon, immune system using newly and recently developed immune assays. In addition, we developed a new assay for measuring immunocompetence of fish. In the first chapter, the Alamar Blue assay was...

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...

The effect of chronic exposure of chinook salmon to benzo(a)pyrene and cortisol of CYP1A1 induction and susceptibility to a microsporidian parasite, Loma salmonae

Creator:: Marie, Amarisa
Abstract:: Wild populations of fish are faced with a multitude of stressors, which may include human interaction, toxins, and disease. Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), a known carcinogen and immunotoxin, has been reported in the stomach contents of juvenile chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, in urban waterways. We investigated the impact of chronic dietary exposure...

The effects of environmental stressors on cardiac gene expression and contractility in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Momoda, Tracey S.
Abstract:: Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) experience a variety of stressors in their natural environment as well as in aquaculture that can have negative effects on their physiology. The effects of physiological stress and endocrine disruption have been well described in fish. However, there is a scarcity of information on the effects...

Physiological ecology of juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) rearing in fluctuating salinity environments

Creator:: Hackmann, Crystal R.
Abstract:: Estuaries provide juvenile salmonids with highly productive feeding grounds, refugia from tidal fluctuations and predators, and acclimation areas for smoltification. However, these dynamic, fluctuating salinity environments may also be physiologically stressful to growing juvenile fish. In order to evaluate the costs and benefits of estuarine marshes to juvenile Chinook salmon,...

Value of Prior and Novel Information in Managing a Mixed-Stock Recreational Chinook Salmon Fishery

Creator:: Jensen, Alexander J.
Abstract:: Many economically important Pacific salmon fisheries along the west coast of North America are mixed-stock, recreational systems, in which managers strive to account for interactions between fish, anglers, and management policy while balancing fishery access against conservation of vulnerable stocks. Specific challenges facing fisheries managers include limited control over angling...

Early self-sorting behavior in Chinook salmon is correlated with variation in growth, behavior and morphology later in life.

Creator:: Unrein, Julia R.
Abstract:: Juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) exhibit an array of life history tactics in Oregon's Willamette River Basin, yet we do not know to what extent it is driven by phenotypic plasticity or whether it is predetermined and how conditions in the early rearing environment may affect phenotype expression. We have...

Effects of acute stress and exercise on subsequent seawater adaptation and cortisol dynamics in juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Liebert, Anja M.
Abstract:: The present study investigated the effects of stress and exercise on seawater (SW) adaptation and cortisol dynamics in juvenile steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss). To examine the effects of stress, fish acclimated to freshwater (FW) were subjected for 3 hours to confinement stress in FW, and subsequently SW (25 ppt) was introduced...
