State of stocks of pacific salmons in the basin of Avacha Bay (southeastern Kamchatka) in 1985–2019
State of pacific salmon stocks is considered for the basins of the Avacha and Paratunka Rivers in 1985–2019. Significant decline of the stocks is noted that is associated with anthropogenic impact growth. Total number of producers for five salmon species

Population structure of chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) across the Pacific Rim, determined from microsatellite analysis [PDF]
The Pacific Rim population structure of chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) was examined with a survey of microsatellite variation to describe the distribution of genetic variation and to evaluate whether chum salmon may have originated from two or more ...

The relation between gonadosomatic index (GSI) value and proximate composition of muscle of chum salmon at each migration stage did not markedly differ with the date and locality of capture. This might suggest that the situation of proximate composition can be characterized by the GSI value.

A Tool for Prioritizing Gravel Augmentation Reaches for Sediment Starved Rivers
ABSTRACT Gravel augmentation is a widely used restoration technique used to improve habitat below dams, including salmonids spawning habitat. However, gravel augmentation can be cost‐prohibitive, and it is often unclear which stream segments have the highest potential to benefit spawning salmonids.

Feeding ecology of juvenile Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) in a northeast Pacific fjord: diet, availability of zooplankton, selectivity for prey, and potential competition for prey resources [PDF]
We investigated the feeding ecology of juvenile salmon during the critical early life-history stage of transition from shallow to deep marine waters by sampling two stations (190 m and 60 m deep) in a northeast Pacific fjord (Dabob Bay, WA) between May ...

Amino acid composition of chum salmon gonadotropin.
The amino acid composition of chum salmon gonadotropin (s-GTH) was compared with that of carp gonadotropin (c-GTH). S-GTH has more glutamic acid and less valine and tyrosine than c-GTH. Moreover s-GTH was compared with the mammalian gonadotropins. S-GTH resembled ovine follicle stimulating hormone (o-FSH) in the number of histidine, arginine, aspartic ...

Geomorphic Effects and Habitat Impacts of Large Wood at Restoration Sites in New England
ABSTRACT Large wood (used interchangeably with the term “instream wood”), which refers to trees, logs and other wood within a channel, is beneficial to river ecosystems and is being used more frequently as a component of river restoration projects. We identified metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of large wood to promote ecological and geomorphic ...

Determination of population structure and stock composition of chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) in Russia determined with microsatellites [PDF]
Variation at 14 microsatellite loci was examined in 34 chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) populations from Russia and evaluated for its use in the determination of population structure and stock composition in simulated mixed-stock fishery samples.

Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed affects coprophagous beetles' dung use
Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed reduced the attractiveness of dung for a common dung beetle (Onthophagus nuchicornis). Dietary supplementation with brown seaweed appeared to reduce the proportion of major males in the F1 generation.
