Book excerpt: Return to the River will describe a new ecosystem-based approach to the restoration of salmon and steelhead populations in the Columbia River, once one of the most productive river basins for anadromous salmonids on the west coast of North America. The approach of this work has broad applicability to all recovery efforts throughout the northern hemisphere and general applicability to fisheries and aquatic restoration efforts throughout the world. The Pacific Northwest is now embroiled in a major public policy debate over the management and restoration of Pacific salmon. The outcome of the debate has the potential to affect major segments of the region's economy - river transportation, hydroelectric production, irrigated agriculture, urban growth, commercial and sport fisheries, etc. This debate, centered as it is on the salmon in all the rivers, has created a huge demand for information. The book will be a powerful addition to that debate. - A 15 year collaboration by a diverse group of scientists working on the management and recovery of salmon, steelhead trout, and wildlife populations in the Pacific Northwest - Includes over 200 figures, with four-color throughout the book - Discusses complex issues such as habitat degradation, juvenile survival through the hydrosystem, the role of artificial production, and harvest reform

Book Genetic Conservation of Salmonid Fishes

Download or read book Genetic Conservation of Salmonid Fishes written by Joseph G. Cloud and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the human population increases and nations become more industrialized, the habitat and water quality required for the survival of fish continues to decline. In addition to these environmental factors, fish populations are directly or potentially affected by harvesting, enhancement programs and introgression with hatchery-propagated or transgenic fish. To our knowledge no other scientific meeting has been assembled to consider the breadth of the problem, to review the technology that is presently available for the preservation of the germ plasm of salmonid stocks and to identify the scientific advances that are required to overcome the problems. Because many salmonids have spawning grounds within the confines of a specific region or county but will spend a large portion of their life cycle within the territorial waters of other countries or in the open ocean, the preservation of unique genes or gene pools in these animals requires international cooperation. This scientific meeting has provided a forum in which to discuss the problems, evaluate the present methods or technology for addressing the problems and suggest new directions or innovations that need to be implemented. During this meeting we limited our discussion to salmonid fishes. However, the general conclusions about the factors that affect the population dynamics of fish stocks and the technical aspects concerning the preservation of germ plasm will be applicable to other fish species.

Book The Atlantic Salmon

Download or read book The Atlantic Salmon written by Eric Verspoor and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atlantic Salmon is a cultural icon throughout its North Atlantic range; it is the focus of probably the World’s highest profile recreational fishery and is the basis for one of the World’s largest aquaculture industries. Despite this, many wild stocks of salmon are in decline and underpinning this is a dearth of information on the nature and extent of population structuring and adaptive population differentiation, and its implications for species conservation. This important new book will go a long way to rectify this situation by providing a thorough review of the genetics of Atlantic salmon. Sponsored by the European Union and the Atlantic Salmon Trust, this book comprises the work of an international team of scientists, carefully integrated and edited to provide a landmark book of vital interest to all those working with Atlantic salmon.

Book Salmonid Fishes

Download or read book Salmonid Fishes written by Yuri P. Altukhov and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important title encompasses features of genetic processes in complexly organised population systems of salmonids, one of the most commercially valuable families of fish worldwide. Translated from the original work in Russian, the authors have taken the opportunity to update and revise the work, much of it appearing in the English language for the first time. Covering such important concepts as optimal gene diversity and the unfavourable influence of fishery and hatchery reproduction on the genetic structure of salmon populations, the authors have drawn together a huge wealth of information that will form the cornerstone of much new work in the future. The authors of Salmonid Fishes have between them many years of research experience and practical knowledge in the area and the English translation of this important work, which has been edited by Professor John Thorpe and Professor Gary Carvalho, provides vital information for all those involved in salmonid management, exploitation and conservation, including fish biologists, fisheries managers, conservation and population biologists, ecologists and geneticists.

Book Conceptual Plans for Qualitatively and Quantitatively Improving Artificial Propagation of Anadromous Salmonids in the Columbia River Basin

Download or read book Conceptual Plans for Qualitatively and Quantitatively Improving Artificial Propagation of Anadromous Salmonids in the Columbia River Basin written by and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1984, the Northwest Power Planning Council (Council) amended its Fish and Wildlife Program (Program) to include an Action Plan (Section 1500), to give focus and priority directions to various aspects of the Program. Regarding improved hatchery effectiveness, Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) was requested to evaluate ongoing work under 704(h) and submit a workplan to cover future efforts. This report provides concepts for increasing hatchery effectiveness. Additionally, it proposes numerical goals for increased fish production, identifies ways to accomplish them and lists supportive objectives, project schedules, and preliminary budgeting information. Preliminary data from subbasin planning indicates a large additional need for artificially reared salmon and steelhead in the Columbia River Basin. The total need depends upon many factors and this information will be developed and refined as subbasin plans are completed. Recently constructed fish hatcheries are coming on line, and other hatcheries are expected to be prescribed. This workplan is directed at increasing fish propagation at existing facilities, as described in program Section 700. In doing this, four approaches were considered and evaluated: (1) purchasing smolts from commercial resources; (2) building additional but typical hatcheries; (3) modifying existing hatcheries to increase their production with supplemental oxygen; and (4) increasing smolt quality to increase survival, via various supportive actions.

Book Genetic Monitoring of Snake River Salmonids

Download or read book Genetic Monitoring of Snake River Salmonids written by Audrey C. Harris and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes the application of genetic techniques to the management and conservation of anadromous salmonids (steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss and spring-summer Chinook Salmon O. tshawytscha) in the Snake River basin. In 2010, Idaho Department of Fish and Game, in collaboration with the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission, initiated two BPA-funded projects (2010-026-00 and 2010-031-00) to test and implement genetic monitoring programs for Snake River basin steelhead and spring-summer Chinook Salmon utilizing two genetic technologies that identify origins of hatchery and wild fish. The first technology, called parentage‐based tagging (PBT), involves annually sampling and genotyping all hatchery broodstock which are added to a genetic baseline of candidate parents. The genotyping of broodstock permanently genetically “tags” all of their offspring. A non‐lethal tissue sample from any offspring of these broodstock can be genotyped and analyses can be completed to assign parentage, thereby identifying hatchery of origin and age. The second technology is called genetic stock identification (GSI) and involves creating a reference genetic baseline from all contributing wild stocks. Wild fish of unknown origin can then be non-lethally sampled, genotyped, and assigned to a stock of origin via assignment testing. Over the last decade, these projects have demonstrated the accuracy, efficiency, and utility of these technologies for monitoring both wild and hatchery stocks throughout the Snake River and Columbia River basins. For hatchery stocks, PBT addresses objectives established by the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) Fish and Wildlife Program which involves marking hatchery stocks, conducting hatchery evaluations and reform, and enforcing salmonid fishery management measures. For wild stocks, GSI provides unprecedented tools for monitoring wild stock abundance, productivity, and genetic diversity, which are required for NOAA ESA status assessments. These two projects were combined by BPA in 2021 (2010-031-00), with ongoing goals of keeping PBT and GSI baselines up-to-date in the Snake River basin, to maintain and enhance SNP genetic marker panels, and to continue projects that use these PBT and GSI baselines to address conservation and management issues of importance to the Northwest Power and Conservation Council and state, tribal and federal fisheries managers. Combined there are eight objectives addressed in this report: 1) the maintenance and evaluation of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels for high-throughput genotyping of steelhead and Chinook Salmon in the Snake and Columbia river basins; 2) the updating, maintenance, and testing of SNP baselines to describe genetic variation and for use as a reference in conducting GSI for both species; 3) annual sampling of hatchery broodstock and creation of genetic parental databases; 4) utilization of PBT and GSI baselines to estimate genetic stock composition and life history diversity of steelhead and spring-summer Chinook Salmon passing Lower Granite Dam (LGR); 5) application of PBT baselines to estimate the stock composition of steelhead in the Columbia and Snake River tribal and sport fisheries; 6) the monitoring of integrated hatchery programs for Chinook Salmon; 7) the summarization of life history and genetic diversity information for steelhead and spring-summer Chinook Salmon detected at PIT tag detection systems; and 8) the development and application of grandparentage technology for use in the Snake River basin.
