Effect of Grain Size on the Burrowing Force of Pacific Sand Lance [PDF]
Pacific sand lances, Ammodytes personatus, are nutrient dense forage fish important to salmon recovery and orca conservation in the San Juan archipelago. Sand lances burrow into sandy sediments during quiescence and in response to threats.

Characterization of the Habitat of Ammodytes hexapterus (Pacific Sand Lance) in the San Juan Channel Sand Wave [PDF]
Ammodytes hexapterus or Pacific sand lance (PSL) are forage fish that spend most of their time buried in benthic substrate (Robards 1999). PSL exhibit a peculiar behavior of actively swimming into sandy substrates as a refuge to avoid predation ...

Climate change threatens net energy uptake, maturation, and reproduction of Pacific Sand Lance (Ammodytes personatus) in the central Salish Sea [PDF]
Juvenile Pacific Herring and Pacific Sand Lance (PSL) are the main prey of juvenile Chinook salmon migrating seaward through the San Juan Islands. Herring and Sand Lance also dominate the diet of resident Chinook (“Blackmouth”) that undoubtedly played an

A nonlethal, whole oocyte approach to determining spawn readiness in Pacific sand lance, Ammodytes personatus, in Southeastern Alaska [PDF]
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2021Knowing when a fish spawns is fundamental to understanding and sustainably managing it. The annual reproductive cycle of the iteroparous, total-spawning sand lances and sandeels (Ammodytidae) has been ...

Grain size on the Elwha River delta intertidal beach: impacts of dam removal and implications for Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes hexapterus) [PDF]
Small mountainous rivers, such as the Elwha River in Washington State, play a key role in the sedimentary processes that form and maintain the structure and function of their neighboring shorelines.

Anthropogenic noise continues to increase every year. While noise has several negative effects on fish, few studies have addressed noise effects on forage fish - a group of key species in their ecosystems. Pacific sand lance, Ammodytes personatus (PSL), are a key forage fish and food source in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean.

Entry and transfer of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the Pacific sand lance life cycle, Puget Sound, Washington [PDF]
Forage fish are an important component in marine food webs as a food source for birds, fishes, and marine mammals. In Puget Sound, Washington, populations of forage fish appear to be in decline, or have unknown stock status. Basic life history details of
