Chinook salmon exhibit long-term rearing and early marine growth in the Fraser River, British Columbia, a large urban estuary

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2020
Estuaries represent a transition zone for salmon migrating from fresh water to marine waters, yet their contribution to juvenile growth is poorly quantified. Here, we use genetic stock identification and otolith analyses to quantify estuarine habitat use

Virulence and Infectivity of UC, MD, and L Strains of Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV) in Four Populations of Columbia River Basin Chinook Salmon

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV) infects juvenile salmonid fish in conservation hatcheries and aquaculture facilities, and in some cases, causes lethal disease.

Endangered wild salmon infected by newly discovered viruses

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The collapse of iconic, keystone populations of sockeye (Oncorhynchus nerka) and Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) salmon in the Northeast Pacific is of great concern. It is thought that infectious disease may contribute to declines, but little is known

Combined effects of warming and hypoxia on early life stage Chinook salmon physiology and development

open access: yesConservation Physiology, 2019
Salmonids are particularly susceptible to warming and hypoxia during development in redds. We reared Chinook salmon embryos and alevins under chronic warming and hypoxia to evaluate the effects of each stressor individually and their interaction. Warming

Ancient DNA analysis of archaeological specimens extends Chinook salmon's known historic range to San Francisco Bay's tributaries and southernmost watershed.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Understanding a species' historic range guides contemporary management and habitat restoration. Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) are an important commercial and recreational gamefish, but nine Chinook subspecies are federally threatened or ...

Endangered predators and endangered prey: Seasonal diet of Southern Resident killer whales.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Understanding diet is critical for conservation of endangered predators. Southern Resident killer whales (SRKW) (Orcinus orca) are an endangered population occurring primarily along the outer coast and inland waters of Washington and British Columbia ...

Multigenerational outbreeding effects in Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) [PDF]

open access: yesGenetica, 2014
Outbreeding, mating between genetically divergent individuals, may result in negative fitness consequences for offspring via outbreeding depression. Outbreeding effects are of notable concern in salmonid research as outbreeding can have major implications for salmon aquaculture and conservation management. We therefore quantified outbreeding effects in

Pop-up satellite archival tags reveal evidence of intense predation on large immature Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the North Pacific Ocean

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2019
Throughout the northern extent of its range, Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) adult returns have been in decline for over a decade, leading to severe harvest restrictions on subsistence, commercial, and recreational fisheries.

Jellyfish in Pacific salmon food

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2022
Ctenophores, hydroid jellyfish, appendicularians, salpas, and the pteropoda mollusk Clione limacina, conditionally combined into the group of “jellyfish”, are found in the food of all Pacific salmon — chum salmon, pink salmon, sockeye salmon, coho salmon

Decoupling outmigration from marine survival indicates outsized influence of streamflow on cohort success for California’s Chinook salmon populations

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2019
Historically, marine survival estimates for salmon have been confounded with freshwater seaward migration (outmigration) survival. Telemetry studies have revealed low and variable survival during outmigration, suggesting marine mortality may not be the ...
