Book Salmonid Fisheries

Download or read book Salmonid Fisheries written by Paul Kemp and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-06-13 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salmonid Fisheries is a landmark publication, concentrating on river management, habitat restoration and rehabilitation, disseminating lessons learnt in relation to the intensively studied salmonids that are applicable to future interventions, not just for salmonid species but for other non-salmonid species, biota and ecosystems. The contents of this book are the product of the Atlantic Salmon Trust’s 40th Anniversary Conference, held in association with the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust. Drawing together carefully-edited contributions from many of the world leaders in river restoration from academia, commercial management and government agencies, this important book highlights the need to view river management from the context of the catchment and to adopt an ecosystem-based approach to restoration. The book is broadly divided into two sections which discuss first, the status of current understanding concerning the relationship between lotic habitat management, the response of salmonid fisheries and the theory of river restoration, and secondly, the application of this to habitat management and river restoration. Salmonid Fisheries is an extremely valuable work of reference for fisheries managers, ecologists, environmental scientists, fish biologists, conservation biologists and geomorphologists. Libraries in all universities and research establishments where biological and earth sciences, and fisheries management are studied or taught should have copies of this book on their shelves. Contributions from a wide range of well known experts Published in association with the Atlantic Salmon Trust Habitat management is crucial for dwindling wild salmon populations Of great importance to aquatic ecologists and fisheries managers

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 296 pages

Download or read book Home Pool written by Philip Lee and published by Fredericton, N.B. : Goose Lane. This book was released on 1996 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just about every salmon river flowing into the North Atlantic has a "Home Pool," a place of beauty and peace where generations of salmon have lurked and generations of anglers have tempted them. But the magnificent Atlantic salmon faces extinction. In the fall of 1995, Philip Lee wrote Watershed Down, a series of articles in the New Brunswick Telegraph-Journal that traced the salmon's plight and argued for a controversial way to renew this fragile resource: private ownership and private management. Home Pool: Saving the Atlantic Salmon is this exciting and original series in book form, illustrated throughout in colour. In Home Pool, Lee writes about the famous salmon rivers of New Brunswick - the Restigouche, the Miramichi, and the ruined St. John. He studies the salmon rivers of Quebec and of Scotland and Iceland. He talks to people who know about salmon: outfitters, anglers, conservationists, and scientists. He faces the issues of forestry mismanagement and civic and industrial pollution squarely. And he grapples with the conflicting values surrounding native fishing rights. Above all, he concentrates on "the sons and daughters of the river" - the voices that cried out for conservation in the past, and the people today who are trying to make sure the great Atlantic salmon can thrive in the future. Letters to the Telegraph-Journal from all over North America testified to widespread support for Lee's ideas. The series won two major conservation journalism awards - the Ted Williams Award, from the US branch of the Miramichi Salmon Association, and the New Brunswick Salmon Council Lou Duffley Award #8212 and the 1996 Atlantic Journalism Award for enterprise reporting.

Book The Atlantic Salmon in the History of North America

Download or read book The Atlantic Salmon in the History of North America written by R. W. Dunfield and published by Fisheries and Oceans, Scientific Information and Publications Branch. This book was released on 1985 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) has occupied a salient position in the history of eastern North America for at least the past 1000 years. Initially the species occupied a prominant niche in the prolific web of life that existed throughout its former occurrence area; millions of pounds of salmon were produced annually from the freshwater streams between New York and Ungava - a resource that was a principal food source for the Amerindian cultures which shared its range. In a chronological and cumulative way, the salmon became an increasingly important factor in both the domestic and commercial life of the developing colonies; it provided a recreational outlet for the sportsman, and evolved as a principal object of intellectual and scientific investigation. The documented specifics of the salmon's history, however, are largely comprised of repetitive instances of overexploitation, careless destruction of stocks and their environment, and ineffectual conservation actions. Despite the species' former importance, its more recent history is one of declining presence, and its destiny appears to be extinction. By documenting this story of discovery, exploitation, and decline, the urgent need for the employment of sound resource management practices to preserve the salmon is emphasized. Appendix A: Historical methods of packing salmon.

This book was released on 2007-10-17 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Built with Stone Age tools from available materials, their design, size, and appearance were varied to suit the many requirements of their users. Even today, canoes are based on these ancient designs, and this fascinating guide combines historical background with instructions for constructing one. Author Edwin Tappan Adney, born in 1868, devoted his life to studying canoes and was practically the sole scholar in his field. His papers and research have been assembled by a curator at the Smithsonian Institution.
