This book was released on 1980 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significant changes have occurred in the distribution of trout in streams of Great Smoky Mountains National Park since 1900. By the mid-1970's the original range of the native brook trout had been reduced by about 70% and the species was relegated to suboptimal habitat in head water streams. Most of the stream sections lost by brook trout became the territory of the introduced rainbow trout, which in 1977 occupied about 80% of the Park waters. After 1950, brown trout introduced in State waters outside the Park established reproducing populations in some 50 miles of stream formerly occupied only by rainbow trout. If current trends continue, the recovery of brook trout in Park water may be difficult, if not impossible, and brown trout may occupy much of the territory now held by rainbow trout.

Download or read book Proximate Composition and Caloric Content of Eight Lake Michigan Fishes written by Donald V. Rottiers and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proximate composition (percentage lipid, water, fat-free dry material, ash) and caloric content of eight species of Lake Michigan fish were measured: lake trout, coho salmon, lake whitefish, bloater, alewife, rainbow smelt, deepwater sculpin, and slimy sculpin. Except for alewives, proximate composition and caloric content did not differ significantly between males and females. Although the caloric content of all species varied directly with lipid content and inversely with water content, an increase in lipid content did not always coincide with a proportional increasein caloric content when other components of fish composition were essentially unchanged. This observation suggests that the energy content of fish estimated from the proximate composition by using universal conversion factors may not necessarily be accurate.

Download or read book Acute Toxicity of Six Forest Insecticides to Three Aquatic Invertebrates and Four Fishes written by Herman O. Sanders and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technical grade and field formulations of six experimental forest insecticides -- methomyl, carbaryl, aminocarb, trichlorfon, fenitrothion, and acephate -- were tested for acut toxicity against three species of aquatic invertebrates, (a daphnid, an amphipod, and larvae of a midge), and four species of fish (bluegill, rainbow trout, fathead minnow, channel catfish). Five of the six insecticides were highly toxic or extremely toxic to the daphnid, amphipod, and midge larvae. The sixth insecticide, acephate, was not toxic to invertebrates at concentrations up to 50 mg/L. Five of the insecticides ranged from highly toxic (methomyl to channel catfish) to relatively non-toxic (trichlorfon to fathead minnows); the sixth, acephate, was only slightly toxic to the fishes tested.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was based mainly on gill-net collections of yellow perch made during July and August 1971-79, in southern Lake Michigan at Grand Haven, Saugatuck, South Haven, Benton Harbor, and New Buffalo, Michigan; Michigan City and Gary, Indiana; Waukegan, Illinois; and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Geographical abundance varied and were partly attributable to differences in fishing mortality.
Download or read book Abate Effects of the Organophosphate Insecticide on Bluegills and Invertebrates in Ponds written by Herman O. Sanders and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Application of the organophosphate insecticide Abate three times (at about monthly intervals) to duplicate 0.04 ha earthen ponds at 18 g/ha (4 micrograms/liter) -- the recommended application rate -- and 180 g/ha (40 micrograms/liter) caused no mortality on blugills. In ponds treated with 18 g/ha fewer bluegill fry were produced than in control ponds, brain acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity was not affected, and accelerated growth of both fry and adults appeared to result from heavy feeding on dead or moribund Diptera larvae that resulted from the first two applications of Abate. The routine use of Abate at the recommended rate should have little adverse effect on fishery resources.
