Download or read book A Bioenergetics Assessment of Temperature and Food Consumption Effects on Growth of Reservoir Striped Bass written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I examined the influence of temperature and food availability on growth of striped bass Morone saxatilis in seven North Carolina reservoirs. Reduced condition and summer mortality events of stocked striped bass in some southern reservoirs have been attributed to the habitat 'squeeze' of high summer temperatures and low dissolved oxygen (DO). However, in a recent study of Lakes Badin and Norman, NC, Thompson et al. (2005) intensively studied striped bass thermal selection, diet, mortality, and energetics, and concluded that food consumption was more important than temperature in explaining the large differences in growth between the systems. Following on this study, I analyzed striped bass growth, diet, predator and prey energy densities, and temperature experience in each of an additional five reservoirs in 2003-2005. Striped bass growth and thermal experience varied widely across all seven reservoirs. Fish growth to age-7 varied from less than 2kg to nearly 6 kg, and fish spent between 0 and 87 days in very warm (e"7 & deg;C) water during summer stratification. Striped bass from lakes that experienced the most severe summer temperature also exhibited relatively fast growth. Simulations of a Wisconsin bioenergetics model parameterized for striped bass estimated that striped bass annual consumption varied between 3,144g for age-2 fish in Lake Gaston and 24,616g for age-5 fish in Jordan Lake. I also used the bioenergetics model to test for the relative effects of water temperature and food consumption on growth by conducting a series of "habitat exchange simulations." In this approach I simulated how much the growth of a particular size fish in one reservoir might change if it had experienced the temperature or food consumption of a similarsized fish in another reservoir. The difference in growth predicted when exchanging consumption was greater than that resulting from exchanging temperature for every pair of lakes compared except for those including Lake Rhodhis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Allee effects are relevant to biologists who study rarity, and to conservationists and managers who try and protect endangered populations. This book provides an overview of the Allee effect, the mechanisms which drive it and its consequences for population dynamics, evolution and conservation.
Download or read book Red Snapper Biology in a Changing World written by Stephen T. Szedlmayer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red Snapper Lutjanus campechanus, is an important commercial and recreational fish species and there has been much interest in maintaining its status among a variety of scientific, social and economic levels. Stocks are influenced by varying environmental conditions, changing fishing effort and efficiency, anthropogenic effects, inter- and intraspecific interactions, bycatch from other fisheries, and habitat alterations. Red Snapper Biology in a Changing World explores these changing factors and their potential effects on Red Snapper in the Eastern Atlantic region including the Gulf of Mexico and Southeastern U.S. The book will provide a better understanding of Red Snapper population fluctuations that will subsequently allow for better management decisions and more informed user groups in their efforts to maintain a sustainable fishery. It explores the responses Red Snapper have made, and are making, relative to their life history attributes such as early life history and adult ecology, especially attributes associated with population distribution and abundance, movement patterns, fish health issues and management success. A compendium of many papers presented at the 147th annual meeting of the American Fisheries Society in Tampa, Florida, this volume also includes additional research completed as a result of the symposium. It will be essential reading for fisheries scientists and managers, ichthyologists, resource and environmental managers, and policymakers who are involved with coastal fisheries.

Download or read book The Future of Fisheries Science in North America written by Richard J. Beamish and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-02-07 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fisheries science in North America is changing in response to a changing climate, new technologies, an ecosystem approach to management and new thinking about the processes affecting stock and recruitment. Authors of the 34 chapters review the science in their particular fields and use their experience to develop informed opinions about the future. Everyone associated with fish, fisheries and fisheries management will find material that will stimulate their thinking about the future. Readers will be impressed with the potential for new discoveries, but disturbed by how much needs to be done in fisheries science if we are to sustain North American fisheries in our changing climate. Officials that manage or fund fisheries science will appreciate the urgency for the new information needed for the stewardship of fish populations and their ecosystems. Research organizations may want to keep some extra copies for a future look back into the thoughts of a wide range of fisheries professionals. Fisheries science has been full of surprises with some of the surprises having major economic impacts. It is important to minimize these impacts as the demand for seafood increases and the complexities of fisheries management increase.

Download or read book Ecology written by Charles J. Krebs and published by Benjamin-Cummings Publishing Company. This book was released on 2001 with total page 695 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This best-selling majors ecology book continues to present ecology as a series of problems for readers to critically analyze. No other text presents analytical, quantitative, and statistical ecological information in an equally accessible style. Reflecting the way ecologists actually practice, the book emphasizes the role of experiments in testing ecological ideas and discusses many contemporary and controversial problems related to distribution and abundance. Throughout the book, Krebs thoroughly explains the application of mathematical concepts in ecology while reinforcing these concepts with research references, examples, and interesting end-of-chapter review questions. Thoroughly updated with new examples and references, the book now features a new full-color design and is accompanied by an art CD-ROM for instructors. The field package also includes The Ecology Action Guide, a guide that encourages readers to be environmentally responsible citizens, and a subscription to The Ecology Place (www.ecologyplace.com), a web site and CD-ROM that enables users to become virtual field ecologists by performing experiments such as estimating the number of mice on an imaginary island or restoring prairie land in Iowa. For college instructors and students.
