This critical review of literature on dissolved oxygen requirements of freshwater fishes is one of a series of papers on water quality criteria, the formulation of which is a prerequisite to the
control of water pollution. It was prepared for FAO by the State of
Oregon (acting by and through...
The 1995 FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries provides a policy framework for sustainable fisheries management. Many FAO Members indicate that the lack of information continues to constrain the full and effective implementation of the Code. This Circular seeks to address a range of information issues required to support...
Sampling with seine and trawl from May 1974 to November 1976 indicated that the species composition and distribution of fishes in Tillamook Bay through time is primarily related to the movements of marine species in and out of the estuary. Northern anchovy (Engraulis mordax), surf smelt (Hypomesus pretiosus), and shiner...
Field investigations were implemented to study the interrelationships between streamflows and salmonid production during the summer-fall low flow period in two natural stream channels. Elk Creek, near Cannon Beach in Clatsop County, was the site selected for intensive investigation.
Construction of streamflow control and diversion facilities was completed in November...
This report presents data collected during the first full field season of
a project designed to examine the streamflow requirements of juvenile salmonids. Problems encountered in the original design, changes made in the design and the application of the expected results are discussed.
