Book Influence of Early Life Growth and Precipitation Zone on Survival to Adulthood in Wild Steelhead Trout  Oncorhynchus Mykiss  in the Skagit River Basin  WA

Download or read book Influence of Early Life Growth and Precipitation Zone on Survival to Adulthood in Wild Steelhead Trout Oncorhynchus Mykiss in the Skagit River Basin WA written by Jamie N. Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wild Steelhead Trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, in the Puget Sound are currently in decline, and very little is known about the early life history of these threatened fish. This study evaluated consequences of early life growth in terms of survival to smolt or adult stages. The objectives of this study were to determine whether significant size-selective mortality (SSM) in Steelhead could be detected between freshwater stages and returning adults; and if so, how the magnitude of size selectivity varied among reaches categorized by three different precipitation zones (snow, mixed rain-snow, or rain). Wild Steelhead in the Skagit River basin were sampled as juveniles, smolts, and adults, and scales were measured to compare back-calculated freshwater growth rates and size distributions of rearing juveniles with individuals that survived from an earlier life stage to the smolt and adult stages. Linear regression of scale radius (SR) and fork length indicated that SR was a reasonable predictor of fork length during freshwater residency. Back-calculated size-at-annulus estimates indicated that fish sampled as adults grew significantly faster to age 1, 2, and 3 annuli compared to fish sampled as juveniles, and faster to the age 2 and 3 annuli compared to fish sampled as smolts. Within precipitation zones, fish sampled as juveniles were consistently smaller at each freshwater annulus compared to those same freshwater annuli on fish sampled as adults. An increased disparity in size-at-annuli 2 and 3 between fish sampled as juveniles, smolts, and adults suggests that fast growth during the period at which Steelhead smoltify is vitally important to survival to adulthood. These findings provide evidence that survival among life stages is an important dynamic in wild Steelhead, and can be attributed, in part, to size attained at earlier life stages. Efforts for recovery of threatened Puget Sound Steelhead could benefit by considering growth- and size-selective mortality in freshwater environments, and identifying factors that limit early life growth at a finer scale of habitat, for example among sub-basins or precipitation zones.

Book Ecological Relation of Sympatric Steelhead and Resident Rainbow Trout in the Deschutes River  Oregon

Download or read book Ecological Relation of Sympatric Steelhead and Resident Rainbow Trout in the Deschutes River Oregon written by Christian E. Zimmerman and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are known to exist in many rivers throughout the Pacific Rim. Whether sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout are polymorphisms within a single gene pool or two reproductively isolated populations has significant implications concerning the study and conservation of this polytypic species. I examined population structure and use of spawning and rearing habitats by steelhead and resident rainbow trout in the Deschutes River, Oregon. I used otolith microchemistry to determine the maternal origin (steelhead verses resident) of adult steelhead and resident rainbow trout based on Sr/Ca ratios in primordia and freshwater growth regions of otoliths. Only steelhead of steelhead origin and resident rainbow trout of resident origin were encountered. In the Babine River of British Columbia, however, steelhead of resident origin and resident rainbow trout of steelhead origin were present. Temporal and spatial segregation of spawning habitat served to limit breeding between steelhead and resident rainbow trout in the mainstem Deschutes River. The timing of 50% spawning by steelhead occurred 9 to 10 weeks earlier than by resident rainbow trout. Steelhead spawning sites were deeper and of larger substrate than those used by resident rainbow trout. There was an overlap in the timing of emergence by steelhead and resident rainbow trout fry in the mainstem Deschutes River, but higher levels of aggression and territoriality characterize newly emerged steelhead fry. Determination of maternal origin based on otolith microchemistry indicated that young-of- year 0. mykiss in small hydrologically unstable tributaries to the Deschutes River were exclusively the progeny of steelhead. Progeny of resident rainbow trout numerically dominated mainstem-rearing habitats. Based on the degree of segregation between steelhead and resident rainbow trout, the two life history forms act as two separate species in the Deschutes River. This relationship has significant implications concerning the restoration and conservation of steelhead and resident rainbow trout. Where steelhead and resident rainbow trout constitute reproductively isolated populations, conservation of both life history forms within the species cannot be achieved unless both populations are maintained.

Book Brown Trout

Download or read book Brown Trout written by Javier Lobón-Cerviá and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 821 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brown Trout: Biology, Ecology and Management A comprehensive guide to the most current research, history, genetics and ecology of the brown trout including challenging environmental problems The brown trout is an iconic species across its natural European distribution and has been introduced throughout the World. Brown Trout offers a comprehensive review of the scientific information and current research on this major fish species. While the brown trout is the most sought species by anglers, its introduction to various waters around the world is causing serious environmental problems. At the same time, introduction of exogenous brown trout lineages threats conservation of native gene pools of populations in many regions. The authors summarize the important aspects of the brown trout’s life history and ecology and focus on the impact caused by the species. The text explores potential management strategies in order to maintain numerous damaged populations within its natural distributional range and to ameliorate its impacts in exotic environments. The authors include information on a wide-range of topics such as recent updates in population genetics, evolutionary history, reproductive traits and early ontogeny, life history plasticity in anadromous brown trout and life history of the adfluvial brown trout and much more. This vital resource: Contains the latest research on the biology and ecology of brown trout Includes information on phylogeography, genetics, population dynamics and stock management Spotlights the brown trout’s introduction to regions around the world and the serious environmental impacts Offers a comprehensive review of conservation and management techniques Written for salmonid scientists and researchers, fishery and environmental managers, and students of population genetics, ecology and population dynamics, Brown Trout explores the most recent findings on the history, ecology and sustainability of this much-researched species.

Download or read book Big Sur written by Jack Kerouac and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-04-26 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A poignant masterpiece of wrenching personal expression from the acclaimed author of On the Road “In many ways, particularly in the lyrical immediacy that is his distinctive glory, this is Kerouac’s best book . . . certainly he has never displayed more ‘gentle sweetness.’”—San Francisco Chronicle Jack Kerouac’s alter ego Jack Duluoz, overwhelmed by success and excess, gravitates back and forth between wild binges in San Francisco and an isolated cabin on the California coast where he attempts to renew his spirit and clear his head of madness and alcohol. Only nature seems to restore him to a sense of balance. In the words of Allen Ginsberg, Big Sur “reveals consciousness in all its syntactic elaboration, detailing the luminous emptiness of his own paranoiac confusion.”
