Characterization of salmon‐foraging harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) in the Erimo region, Hokkaido, Japan, using finite mixture models

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
Finite mixture models revealed that older, larger harbor seals specialize in salmon predation at setnets in Hokkaido, Japan, suggesting targeted management strategies focusing on these specialist individuals could effectively reduce fishery conflicts while protecting the broader seal population.

Heterogeneity of Surf Smelt, Hypomesus pretiosus (Girard), in the State of Washington, as Judged by Incidence of Larval Anisakis (Nematoda)

open access: yes, 1967
Spawning populations of surf smelt, Hypomesus pretiosus (Girard), from three distinct localities on the coast of Washington State revealed different levels of infestation by larval nematodes, genus Anisakis, in 1962.

Fish Assemblage Shift after Japanese Smelt (Hypomesus nipponensis McAllister, 1963) Invasion in Lake Erhai, a Subtropical Plateau Lake in China

open access: yes, 2021
The introduction of non-native fish species is known to have adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems, but their effect on plateau lakes is not well studied. In this study, we examined the effect of the Japanese smelt (Hypomesus nipponensis) invasion on the

Influence of open and closed river systems on the migrations of two northern New Zealand populations of banded kokopu (Galaxias fasciatus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Otolith microchemical analysis by laser ablation inductively coupled mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to investigate the migratory life histories of banded kokopu (Galaxias fasciatus) in two streams on the North Island of New Zealand.

Long-Term Trends in Summertime Habitat Suitability for Delta Smelt, Hypomesus transpacificus

open access: yesSan Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2008
The biological productivity of river-dominated estuaries is affected strongly by variation in freshwater inflow, which affects nursery habitat quality. Previous research has shown this is generally true in the upper San Francisco Estuary, California, USA;

Integrative Untersuchungen der ökologischen Nische und der Effekte von multiplen Stressfaktoren anhand des bedrohten Delta Smelts (Hypomesus transpacificus).

open access: yes, 2015
This project investigated the ecological niche and multiple stressor scenarios in the endangered fish species Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus). Survival and physiological stress response were affected by turbidity, salinity and contaminants, and ...

Modification of the biological intercept model to account for ontogenetic effects in laboratory-reared delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus)* [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We investigated age, growth, and ontogenetic effects on the proportionality of otolith size to fish size in laboratory-reared delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) from the San Francisco Bay estuary.

Evaluating the impact of captive ancestry on the growth and survival of Delta Smelt in a captive environment

open access: yesAquaculture Reports
Delta Smelt Hypomesus transpacificus, is an endangered fish endemic to the California San Francisco Bay-Delta, USA. Extreme declines of the wild Delta Smelt population have prompted use of cultured fish to supplement the wild population since 2021 to ...
