The effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies

Creator:: Miller, Scott W.
Abstract:: I used current water management practices in central and eastern Oregon and Washington as natural experiments to quantify the effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies. Reduced discharge had direct (e.g. decreased velocity and wetted habitat) and indirect (e.g. increased conductivity and temperature) effects...

Life history and evolutionary adaptation of Pacific salmon and its application in management

Creator:: Wevers, Mary Jo
Abstract:: An approach to understanding and managing anadromous salmon, steelhead, and sea-run cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus spp.) based on life history and evolutionary adaptive capacities of species and stocks is presented. Species, stocks, and local populations are viewed as systems that are continuously adapting to changing environmental conditions. They have the potential...

An Examination of Gender and Racial/Ethnic Social Identities in Marine, Aquatic, and Fisheries Sciences

Creator:: King, Brittany D.
Abstract:: Despite growing efforts to recruit individuals from diverse backgrounds, natural resources fields, including marine aquatic and fisheries science, do not reflect the diversity of the United States. This dissertation utilized three studies to explore underrepresentation in marine, aquatic, and fisheries sciences by examining career influences, experiences, and perspectives at different...

Classification of Icelandic watersheds and rivers to explain life history strategies of Atlantic salmon

Creator:: Gudjonsson, Sigurdur
Abstract:: A hierarchical classification system of Iceland's watersheds and rivers is presented. The classification is based on Iceland's substrate, climate, water, biota, and human cultural influences. The geological formations of Iceland are very different in character depending on their age and formation history. Three major types of formations occur: Tertiary, Plio-Pleistocene,...

The status and life history traits of endemic, native and introduced species in Lake Lanao, Philippines

Creator:: Ismail, Gladys B.
Abstract:: The endemic cyprinids of Lake Lanao, Philippines have been described as a species flock and are thought to be an example of explosive evolution. However, based on historical surveys, 16 of the 18 cyprinid species endemic to Lake Lanao are now believed to be extinct. Furthermore, non-native species have been...

Life-history organization of cutthroat trout in Yellowstone Lake and its management implications

Creator:: Gresswell, Robert E.
Abstract:: Life-history organization of the cutthroat trout (Oncorhvnchus clarki) may be viewed at various levels, including species, subspecies, metapopulation, population, or individual. Each level varies in spatial scale and temporal persistence, and components at each level continually change with changes in environment. Cutthroat trout are widely distributed throughout the western USA,...

Vertebral elemental markers in elasmobranchs : potential for reconstructing environmental history and population structure

Creator:: Smith, Wade D.
Abstract:: Differences in the chemical composition of calcified structures can be used to reveal natal origins, connectivity, metapopulation structure, and reconstruct the environmental history or movement patterns of many marine organisms. Sharks, skates, and rays (elasmobranchs) lack the calcified structures, known as otoliths, that are typically used for geochemical studies of...

Seasonal life history of Oncorhynchus mykiss in the South Fork John Day River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Tattam, Ian A.
Abstract:: Understanding seasonal changes in growth, survival, and movement rates is crucial to salmonid management. These life history characteristics provide a context for evaluation of management actions. We evaluated the life history of individually marked Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri in the South Fork John Day River basin in Northeastern Oregon. This thesis...

A model of fall chinook salmon (Onchorhynchus tshawytscha) life history

Creator:: Hirai, Takayuki
Abstract:: The research involved development of two ecological simulation models to explain the complex dimensionality of chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) life history structure (represented by the age composition of the spawning stock) and management difficulties entailed in the complexity. Since different sizes of chinook salmon are thought to adapt differently to...

Born to run? Integrating individual behavior, physiology, and life histories in partially migratory steelhead and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Sloat, Matthew R.
Abstract:: Steelhead and rainbow trout are common names for marine-migratory (anadromous) and freshwater-resident forms of Oncorhynchus mykiss, a partially migratory salmonid fish. Anadromous and resident forms are sympatric and can produce offspring with a life history different from their own (i.e., steelhead parents can produce rainbow trout offspring and vice versa)....
