Download or read book An Electrofishing Boat with a Variable Voltage Pulsator for Lake and Reservoir Studies written by F. Phillip Sharpe and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fishery biologists working in lentic waters have long been in need of fish collection gear that could be used to select fish of a desired species or size. Equipment described were developed to meet this need during trout investigations in Yellowstone Laek. Refinements have been incorporated into the Yellowstone electrofishing shocker boat. Yellowstone Lake is optimum for use of the shocker. Large numbers of cutthroat trout, 3 to 18 inches long, were captured in the summer of 1963 and no losses were incurred. Under average shocking conditions, 75 to 100 adult cutthroat trout are captured per hour. All species of fish encountered were readily attracted to the positive electrode.
Download or read book Electricity in Fish Research and Management written by W. R. C. Beaumont and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electricity in Fish Research and Management, 2nd Edition provides a comprehensive discussion of the uses of both electricity and electrical principles in fishery management and research. It covers electric fishing (including theory, equipment, data analysis and practical factors affecting efficiency), fish barriers, fish counters and fish welfare issues. The book concentrates on Electric Fishing (or Electrofishing); an internationally accepted and widely used procedure for sampling fish. Over the past 50 years electric fishing has become a standard method for fishery studies and management e.g. establishing population densities and abundance. However, due to the potential hazards of the method (both to operators and fish) there is a continuing need to develop and promote best practice guidelines. The author has studied fish ecology for 40 years and understands the need for information that reaches out to all levels of understanding in the field. Previous books on this subject have either been collections of scientific papers and/or technical reports or very simple instruction manuals. In this book theory and practice is explained using non-technical language and simple equations. It brings depth as well as breadth in both information and principles behind the methods and should be an invaluable tool to both fisheries managers and researchers. Although the book is aimed at undergraduates, the clear explanation of the factors means that the book is suitable for all levels of practitioners.

Download or read book Electrofishing and Its Harmful Effects on Fish written by Darrel E. Snyder and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrofishing, which involves a very dynamic and complex mix of physics, physiology, and behavior; has been a valuable sampling technique for over half a century, but its potentially harmful effects on fish must be recognized, monitored, and avoided or minimized, especially with respect to populations of endangered species. Spinal injuries and associated hemorrhages, although often not externally obvious or fatal, can occur anywhere in the electrofishing field at or above the intensity threshold for twitch. These injuries are believed to result from powerful convulsions 0 body musculature caused mostly by sudden changes in voltage. Significantly fewer spinal injuries are reported when direct current, low-frequency pulsed direct current (#30 Hz), or specially designed pulse trains are used. Salmoninae are especially susceptible. Endangered cyprinids of the Colorado River Basin are generally much less susceptible, but the endangered catostomid Xyrauchen Texanus appears sufficiently susceptible to warrant minimal-use policy. Other harmful effects, including bleeding at gills or vent and excessive physiological stress, are also of concern. Mortality, usually by asphyxiation, is a common result of excessive exposure to tetanizing intensities near electrodes or poor handling of captured specimens. Reported effects on reproduction are contradictory, but electrofishing over spawning grounds can harm embryos.

Book excerpt: Walleye, the holy grail of game fish: on catching them, understanding their biology and history, and ensuring their survival Among the more than 34,000 species of fish, few have the walleye’s following—among anglers and diners, states conferring official status on the fish, and towns battling for recognition as the Walleye Capital of the World. And among those passionate fans, few know the walleye as well as Paul J. Radomski does—a fisheries biologist, lake ecology scientist, and old fisherman. In Walleye: A Beautiful Fish of the Dark he unspools the mysteries of this fascinating fish. Radomski looks at walleye from every angle, with something to say to the curious naturalist, committed ecologist, and avid fishing enthusiast. People who view walleye as the “lion of the lakes” might be surprised to learn that rivers are their ancestral habitat. Some might wonder about the name “wall-eye,” a nod to an evolutionary adaptation to dark water environments. Others might simply ask: why walleye? What are they, where do they exist, how do they survive, and how have people come to depend on them? Radomski discusses the principles and pitfalls of managing this predator of the twilight (and the history and methods of doing so) and shares his informed perspective on when and where stocking is prudent. Finally, he explores three of the best walleye lakes: Winnebago, the largest inland walleye fishery in Wisconsin, and Mille Lacs and Red Lake in Minnesota. From the simple pleasures of fishing for walleye to the most pressing questions about how this species survives, this book is the best word on this beautiful fish of the dark.
Download or read book Electric Boats and Ships written by Kevin Desmond and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric propulsion for boats was developed in the early 19th century and--despite the advent of the internal combustion engine--continued with the perfecting of the modern turbo-electric ship. Sustainable and hybrid technologies, pioneered in small inland watercraft toward the end of the 20th century, have in recent years been scaled up to create integrated electric drives for the largest ocean-going vessels. This comprehensive history traces the birth and rebirth of the electric boat from 1835 to the present, celebrating the Golden Age of electric launches, 1880-1910.
