  • Investigating Demographic and Evolutionary Factors Important for Fish Reintroduction

    Creator:
    Sard, Nicholas M.
    Abstract:
    Reintroduction programs are used to re-establish species back into their historical habitat. Most reintroduction programs have failed and few papers have evaluated factors that may be important to Pacific salmon. The 158 meter tall Cougar Dam has blocked Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) from accessing 40 kilometers of historical spawning and...

  • Mate choice of wild spawning coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in the Umpqua River, Oregon

    Creator:
    Whitcomb, Amelia C.
    Abstract:
    Evidence for reduced reproductive success (RS) of wild spawning hatchery-reared fish invites serious consideration with regard to the detrimental effects on subsequent generations of wild populations. Mate choice was evaluated as a potential mechanism contributing to these observed RS differences using a previous pedigree of wild spawning hatchery-reared and wild...
