Criteria for the design and construction of a prototype streamside
incubator for Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus) eggs and alevins
are described. Operation of the prototype and methods of transporting
freshly spawned salmon eggs from distant sources are reported.
Effects of water velocity, stocking density, and substrate type
on the growth, development,...
The performances of newly-established gravel incubation systems designed to use unfiltered water for production of unfed salmon fry were evaluated at Netarts Bay, Oregon, and at Little Port Walter, Alaska.
Research was divided into two phases. The first consisted of laboratory studies to develop fry quality testing procedures and to...
