Book Fecundity of Fall Chinook Salmon from the Upper Columbia River

Download or read book Fecundity of Fall Chinook Salmon from the Upper Columbia River written by S. B. Mathews and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fecundity estimates of Columbia River fall chinook were made at the McNary, Priest Rapids, and Rocky Reach channels. The main purpose of the analysis was to determine whether or not there were significant differences among the length-fecundity relationships for fall-run chinook salmon from the three spawning channels for different years.

Book Social Interaction Between Juvenile Coho and Fall Chinook Salmon in Sixes River  Oregon

Download or read book Social Interaction Between Juvenile Coho and Fall Chinook Salmon in Sixes River Oregon written by Roy A. Stein and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of the interaction between juvenile coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch (Walbaum), and fall chinook salmon, 0. tshawytscha (Walbaum), was studied in Sixes River, Oregon. Seining, snorkeling, and tagging were used to determine distribution and patterns of growth of these two species in the stream environment. Experiments conducted in flowing-water observation troughs that provided volitional residence were designed to examine the outcome of agonistic behavior between these two species. Both species were distributed throughout the entire river system in early spring. During this period, underwater surveys in the main river and selected tributaries indicated that both species preferred the same habitat. As temperatures increased during the late spring, coho disappeared from the main river, but continued to occupy cool tributaries. Fall chinook, on the other hand, were found primarily in the main river until early summer, when they moved to the estuary. Relatively few individuals remained in the tributaries. Experiments conducted in the troughs revealed that agonistic behavior, including nipping, chasing, lateral display, submission, and fleeing, occurred between juvenile coho and fall chinook. When the two species were together in the troughs and in cool tributary streams, coho grew faster than chinook. When isolated in troughs, both grew at similar rates. Coho tolerated fewer individuals per unit area than did chinook, and occupied positions of dominance near the source of incoming food at the upstream end of the troughs. Coho had brighter fin and body colors, greater fin development, deeper bodies, and were heavier than fall chinook of the same length. Coloration and morphology appeared to be important factors influencing the "apparent" size and presumably the social status of both species. Juvenile coho, with extensive development of fins and coloration and intense territorial behavior, are hypothesized to be adapted to small, cool tributary streams. Fall chinook, on the other hand, with conservative development of fins and coloration and related behavior patterns, appear to be adapted to conditions in the main river and estuary.

Book Identification of Larval Fishes of the Great Lakes Basin with Emphasis on the Lake Michigan Drainage

Download or read book Identification of Larval Fishes of the Great Lakes Basin with Emphasis on the Lake Michigan Drainage written by Great Lakes Fishery Commission and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 788 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual for the identification of larval fishes of the Great Lakes basin with emphasis on the Lake Michigan drainage treats 24 families and 148 species. In addition to a key to the families, keys were constructed for selected species within some families. Species accounts include descriptions of adult ecology, reproductive biology, diagnostic characters and meristics. A description of the egg is given, as are morphometric, morphological and pigmentation characteristics of yolk-sac larvae, larvae and juveniles. Illustrations of yolk-sac larvae, larvae and juveniles have been included wherever possible and informative.
