An anemia of juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) is described and stages of development separated by recognizable syndromes.

General migration behavior, the minimum length of time the fish remained in the fishery, population sizes, and fishing mortalities were determined from...
Clatsop Beaches, characterized by flat beach-face slope (1:70) and small sandsize (0.2 mm.), have supported commercial and recreational fisheries for the razor clam (Siliqua patula) for many years. Tracing the linear growth of two year classes through more than one year following set led to a validation of the ring...
