Characterizing the stress response in juvenile Delta smelt exposed to multiple stressors

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A, Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2022
The Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), once an abundant fish endemic to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Estuary, is now on the brink of extinction. Due to the high sensitivity of this species, knowledge of their stress response will be vital to their future survival and sustainability.

Physiological effects of salinity on Delta Smelt, Hypomesus transpacificus

Fish Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015
Abiotic factors like salinity are relevant to survival of pelagic fishes of the San Francisco Bay Estuary. We tested the effects of 4 parts per thousand (ppt) salinity increases on Delta Smelt (DS) in a laboratory experiment simulating salinity increases that might occur around the low-salinity zone (LSZ) (

Evaluating the Performance of a Small-Scale Culture System for Delta Smelt

North American Journal of Aquaculture, 2022
Abstract Since 2008, a refuge population of Delta Smelt Hypomesus transpacificus has been cultured in a conservation hatchery to help protect the imperiled species from extinction. Culture techniques for this population have thus far focused on maximizing genetic diversity in conjunction with large-scale operations (40 larval tanks, 5 ...

Spawning Behavior of Cultured Delta Smelt in a Conservation Hatchery

North American Journal of Aquaculture, 2015
Abstract Understanding reproductive behavior of sensitive species is crucial for their conservation. The Delta Smelt Hypomesus transpacificus is a federally threatened, state-endangered fish whose reproductive behavior is poorly understood.

Tidal Wetlands Associated with Foraging Success of Delta Smelt

Estuaries and Coasts, 2019
Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), an annual fish endemic to the San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is imperiled. One recovery strategy is to restore tidal wetlands, thereby increasing productivity and prey abundance. However, the link between tidal wetlands and foraging of delta smelt is not yet established.
