Capture-related stressors impair sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, immune system function

Creator:

Lupes, Sarah C.

Abstract:

Sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, is a valuable North Pacific Ocean species caught in several commercial fisheries and is often discarded due to size or catch limits. Managers must account for the mortality of discarded fish to assess fish populations and harvest impacts, yet discard mortality rates of specific fisheries are generally...

Behavioral and physiological indicators of stress in sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria

Creator:

Spencer, Mara L.

Abstract:

The development of assays for stress in marine fishes is vital for studying the impacts of bycatch in fisheries and for determining the health of fish being cultured or used in research. This research developed behavioral and physiological assays for stress in juvenile sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, a species that comprises...

A critical examination of the ageing method for sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria) from the U.S. west coast using edge analysis and oxytetracycline

Creator:

O'Malley, Joseph M.

Abstract:

This thesis evaluates the current break-and-burn ageing method for the southern stock (U.S. west coast) of sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria). Differences in growth rates between the northern (north of Vancouver Island, BC) and southern stocks (south of Vancouver Island, BC) and results from a radiometric study conducted on fish from the...
