Stomach analyses were carried out on 80 - 160 mm long smelts sampled monthly from May 1976 to September 1977. The amount of food was lower from February to April than during the rest of the year.

Comparing climate change and species invasions as drivers of coldwater fish population extirpations. [PDF]
Species are influenced by multiple environmental stressors acting simultaneously. Our objective was to compare the expected effects of climate change and invasion of non-indigenous rainbow smelt (Osmerus mordax) on cisco (Coregonus artedii) population ...

Assessments at multiple levels of biological organization allow for an integrative determination of physiological tolerances to turbidity in an endangered fish species. [PDF]
Turbidity can influence trophic levels by altering species composition and can potentially affect fish feeding strategies and predator-prey interactions.

Rainbow Smelt (Osmerus mordax) Genomic Library and EST Resources
AbstractGenomic resources in rainbow smelt (Osmerus mordax) enable us to examine the genome duplication process in salmonids and test hypotheses relating to the fate of duplicated genes. They further enable us to pursue physiological and ecological studies in smelt.

Data on biology, ecology and fishery of asiatic smelt in the Uda River during its spawning migration are analyzed. The spawning begins in May-June in 2–11 km from the river mouth and lasts 3–10 days. Timing of its start varies from May 22 (2014 and 2018)

Fish predation pressure on zooplankton in a large northern temperate lake: impact of adult predators versus juvenile predators; pp. 356–367 [PDF]
In recent decades, a marked decrease in planktivorous fish (Osmerus eperlanus eperlanus m. spirinchus Pallas and Coregonus albula (L.)) in Lake Peipsi has stimulated research into the potential effect of fish predation on zooplankton.

Length–weight relationships of 12 fish species (Actinopterygii) from nearshore and coastal Alaskan waters of the eastern Bering, Chukchi, and Beaufort seas [PDF]
Changing ocean conditions in higher latitude ecosystems and the potential impact on marine fish underscores the need for baseline information on their biology and growth.

Untersuchungen zur chemischen Zusammensetzung und Nematodenbelastung von Stinten (Osmerus eperlanus L.) [PDF]
Smelt (Osmerus eperlanus L.) from the river Elbe has a long tradition as local food speciality. It is offered baked or fried every year during spring in many restaurants along the river.

Lipid correction of hydrogen stable isotope ratios in fish
Abstract Lipids are known to affect stable isotope ratio of organisms, especially δ13C values, and simple arithmetic lipid‐correction procedures have been developed based on the carbon to nitrogen ratio (C : N) that is a proxy for lipid content. Equivalent issues will likely arise with the increasing use of hydrogen isotopes in ecology, but as yet no ...
