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...

Habitat use, movement, and life history variation of coastal cutthroat trout, Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii, in the Salmon River estuary, Oregon

Creator:: Krentz, Lisa K.
Abstract:: Anadromous coastal cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii may be highly dependent on estuaries, passing through them multiple times during their lifetime. However, few studies have investigated estuarine use by coastal cutthroat trout and it is often thought that estuaries serve primarily as migration corridors rather than rearing areas. We used...

Multiscale assessment of thermal patterns and the distribution of chinook salmon in the John Day River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Torgersen, Christian E.
Abstract:: This study examined the distribution and behavior of adult spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) related to patterns of stream temperature and physical habitat at channel unit, reach, and basin-wide spatial scales in both a wilderness stream and a disturbed stream in the John Day River basin in northeastern Oregon. Thermal...

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...

Seasonal shifts in redband trout use of pools and their microhabitats in three central Oregon streams

Creator:: Hirsch, Christine L.
Abstract:: Redband trout density was examined in three forested streams in central Oregon at two scales, pool channel unit and microhabitat. Two streams were in roadless areas and one was in a "highly managed" watershed. At the larger spatial scale, trout displayed a seasonal shift in habitat use from early to...

Formation and maintenance of fish assemblages in a high desert Oregon stream

Creator:: Pearsons, Todd N.
Abstract:: Considerable controversy exists about how fish assemblages are organized. I explicitly took fish movement into account while I studied the effects of disturbance, habitat complexity, and predation at different times of the summer to understand the major factors influencing assemblage structure in a high desert Oregon stream. The effects of...

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...

Ecology and decline of a rare western minnow : the Oregon chub (Oregonichthys crameri)

Creator:: Pearsons, Todd N.
Abstract:: Once historically widespread throughout the Willamette and Umpqua River drainages, the Willamette Oregon chub is now restricted to scattered populations along 15 miles of the Middle Fork of the Willamette River whereas the Umpqua Oregon chub is still widely distributed. The decline in the Willamette drainage was more severe because...

Benthic biological invasions in two temperate estuaries and their effects on trophic relations of native fish and community stability

Creator:: Castillo, Gonzalo C.
Abstract:: The extent of biological invasions, their role on the feeding of native fishes and their impact on community stability were investigated in Alsea Bay and Yaquina Bay, two estuaries on the central Oregon coast, USA. Most nonindigenous species (NIS) introduced in these intermediately invaded estuaries are considered byproducts of culturing...

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...
