Otolith Growth and Microchemistry to Determine Variability in Recruitment Success of Delta Smelt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This project employed otolith geochemistry to study the recruit- ment patterns and growth rates of delta smelt before and during the Pelagic Organism Decline (POD) in the San Francisco Bay-Delta. The delta smelt was selected as the target species for the

Diet, Prey Selection, and Body Condition of Age-0 Delta Smelt, Hypomesus transpacificus, in the Upper San Francisco Estuary

open access: yesSan Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2014
Steven B. Slater and Randall D. Baxterdoi: http://dx.doi.org/10.15447/sfews.2014v12iss3art1The Delta Smelt, an endangered fish, has suffered a long-term decline in abundance, believed to result from, in part, to changes in the pelagic food web of the ...

Examples of raw images of (A) delta smelt and (B) threadfin shad obtained by the SmeltCam during our field study.

open access: yes, 2013
Note that in the delta smelt image all of the fins, including the adipose fin, are clearly visible and allow delta smelt to be differentiated from other species such as longfin smelt.

Studies on The Olfactory Biology and Behavioral Responses to Copper Exposure of The Native Indicator Species Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) is a small Osmerid native to the San Francisco Bay Delta (Bay-Delta) in California. Delta Smelt population has declined dramatically since the species was declared as endangered in 1993, and now has been listed ...

Otolith-based comparisons of wild versus hatchery-origin delta smelt

open access: yesEndangered Species Research
The rapid decline of California’s endangered delta smelt Hypomesus transpacificus has called for immediate and effective conservation actions. Since 2021, up to 92000 cultured delta smelt have been released annually into the Sacramento-San Joaquin River ...

A Covered Cod-End and Tow-Path Evaluation of Midwater Trawl Gear Efficiency for Catching Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus)

open access: yesSan Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2017
https://doi.org/10.15447/sfews.2017v15iss4art3For nearly 50 years, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife has used a midwater trawl to intensively monitor fish populations in the San Francisco Estuary during the fall, sampling over 100 locations

Feeding ecology of adult delta smelt in the San Francisco Estuary

open access: yes, 2018
The delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) is a small, pelagic, endangered fish endemic to the San Francisco Estuary. Declines in abundance have stimulated interest in its feeding habits, but most reports have examined feeding by larvae and juveniles. We
