Global assessment of extinction risk to populations of Sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Concern about the decline of wild salmon has attracted the attention of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The IUCN applies quantitative criteria to assess risk of extinction and publishes its results on the Red ...

Ecological transcriptomics of lake-type and riverine sockeye salmon (
BMC Ecology, 2011 Background There are a growing number of genomes sequenced with tentative functions assigned to a large proportion of the individual genes. Model organisms in laboratory settings form the basis for the assignment of gene function, and the ecological ...

Genome‐wide analysis reveals demographic and life‐history patterns associated with habitat modification in landlocked, deep‐spawning sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Human‐mediated habitat fragmentation in freshwater ecosystems can negatively impact genetic diversity, demography, and life history of native biota, while disrupting the behavior of species that are dependent on spatial connectivity to complete their ...

Genotyping-in-Thousands by sequencing panel development and application to inform kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) fisheries management at multiple scales. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 The ability to differentiate life history variants is vital for estimating fisheries management parameters, yet traditional survey methods can be inaccurate in mixed-stock fisheries.

Ontogenetic shifts in olfactory rosette morphology of the sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka. [PDF]
J Morphol, 2023 Abstract Sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka , are anadromous, semelparous fish that breed in freshwater—typically in streams, and juveniles in most populations feed in lakes for 1 or 2 years, then migrate to sea to feed for 2 or 3 additional years, before returning to their ...

Heat exchange rates between adult sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) and the environment. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Body temperatures of salmon do not always match the temperatures of their immediate environment. We investigated the relationship between varying ambient water temperatures and body temperatures of adult sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka using Newton's law of cooling and non‐linear mixed models.

Developing molecular classifiers to detect environmental stressors and smolt stages in sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka [PDF]
Scientific ReportsClimate change is increasingly affecting Pacific salmon to combinations of thermal, hypoxic, and osmotic stressors that can impair survival. Although genomic tools have enabled detailed insight into stressor responses under controlled conditions, field ...

A Generalizable Tool for Predicting Developmental Phenology for Wild Ecotherms. [PDF]
Ecol EvolCustom hatch timing models developed for four North American Lithobates frog species. Models are parameterized from Moore (1939). Panels (A, B) shows differential developmental rates under varying thermal regimes and G × E interactions. ABSTRACT Development in poikilothermic organisms is strongly temperature‐dependent, particularly during early life ...

Using environmental DNA to identify emerging Pacific salmon habitats and support Indigenous governance [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract Northern watersheds are facing rapid hydroclimatic reorganization driven by climate warming, glacier retreat, and intensifying land use. These changes are altering the distribution and accessibility of aquatic habitats, creating both risks and opportunities for cold‐adapted species such as Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.).
