  • 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...

  • Central control of locomotor activity in juvenile salmonids : the role of corticotropin releasing hormone in the brain

    Creator:
    Clements, Shaun
    Abstract:
    The present study investigated the neurocrine and neuroendocrine control of locomotor activity, habitat choice, social behavior, and migratory behavior in juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). This was achieved by the manipulation of three neurotransmitter systems; serotonin (5-HT), dopamine (DA), y-amino-n-butyric acid (GABA) and the neuropeptide corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). Chemicals were...
