Contribution of subyearling estuarine migrant coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) to spawning populations on the southern Oregon coast

Creator:: Nordholm, Katherine E.
Abstract:: The typical coho salmon life history has been characterized by juvenile fish that spend their entire first year in freshwater habitats before migrating into estuaries as smolts. However, reports of early migrating coho fry (age 0), including migration downstream to estuarine habitats, date back to the 1960s. Until a few...

The distribution and aggregation of Chinook salmon stocks on the Oregon Shelf as indicated by the commercial catch and genetics

Creator:: Ireland, Robert
Abstract:: Project CROOS, Collaborative Research on Oregon Ocean Salmon, is a unique partnership of scientists and commercial fishermen that combines catch location data with stock assignments obtained from genetic micro-satellite analysis to investigate the distribution of Oregon Chinook across multiple spatial scales. Using catch data collected by collaborating Oregon troll fishermen,...

Two Essays on the Management of the West Coast Salmon Fishery

Creator:: Vasquez-Caballero, Smit
Abstract:: The West Coast salmon fishery presents several complexities that have received little attention in the fisheries economics literature. Two of those complexities are reviewed and analyzed in this dissertation. The first, salmon fishermen participate in alternative fisheries within a season demonstrating a complex switching behavior between different species. Second, the...

Growth, residence, and movement of juvenile Chinook salmon within restored and reference estuarine marsh channels in Salmon River, Oregon

Creator:: Hering, David K.
Abstract:: Tidal wetland channels provide rearing habitat for juvenile Chinook salmon as they emigrate from freshwater habitat and prepare to enter the ocean. Widespread diking and drainage of estuarine marshes for agricultural and urban development may have contributed to a decline in salmon abundance in the Pacific Northwest, prompting efforts to...

Treaty past, treaty present : an interdisciplinary analysis of the Pacific Salmon Treaty through examination of the values, culture and political structures that provide definition

Creator:: Evans, Paul L.
Abstract:: The Pacific Salmon Treaty was established by Canada and the United States to secure sustainability of salmon harvests within the Pacific Northwest. Renewed in June 1999, the treaty functions to legitimize and empower the Pacific Salmon Commission as the agent of fishery sustainability. The Pacific Salmon Commission serves as a...

Impacts of multispecies parasitism on coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in Oregon

Creator:: Ferguson, Jayde A.
Abstract:: Diseases caused by parasites are recognized as significant sources of mortality in wild fish populations. I assessed the impacts of multispecies parasitism on a threatened stock of juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). A crucial prerequisite to this research was proper identification of parasites, which can be difficult for species lacking...

Salmon recovery in the Pacific Northwest : defining what constitutes a wild salmon

Creator:: Courter, Ian I.
Abstract:: In spite of considerable efforts to restore natural runs of anadromous salmonids in the Pacific Northwest, they remain at risk of extirpation. Along with many other factors influencing the decline, stocking from hatcheries over the past hundred years is often suggested to be a major cause. The listing of over...

The size of the Oregon coastal salmon runs in the mid-1800s

Creator:: Meengs, Chad C.
Abstract:: Increasing the abundance of salmon in coastal Oregon rivers and streams is a high priority public policy objective. Salmon runs have been reduced from pre-development conditions (typically defined as the 1 850s), but it is unclear by how much. Considerable resources have been allocated to restoring salmon runs, but it...

Investigating Demographic and Evolutionary Factors Important for Fish Reintroduction

Creator:: Sard, Nicholas M.
Abstract:: Reintroduction programs are used to re-establish species back into their historical habitat. Most reintroduction programs have failed and few papers have evaluated factors that may be important to Pacific salmon. The 158 meter tall Cougar Dam has blocked Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) from accessing 40 kilometers of historical spawning and...

Juvenile Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) Diet in Brackish and Freshwater Habitats in the Stream-estuary Ecotones of Coos Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Mackereth, Kailan F.
Abstract:: Loss of lowland estuarine and freshwater off-channel habitats along the Pacific Northwest coast has contributed to the decline of salmonid populations. These habitats serve as nursery grounds for juvenile salmonids providing them with food, winter shelter, and a transition zone between freshwater and saltwater. Lowland areas have undergone anthropogenic alterations...
