Hatcheries to High Seas: Climate Change Connections to Salmon Marine Survival [PDF]
We investigated variations in the marine survival of Japanese hatchery chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) during 25 years of climate change (1998–2023).

Hatchery Salmon and Ecological Overshoot
Is there an ecological niche for ‘ocean ranched’ hatchery salmon, Oncorhynchus spp., to supplement wild salmon? Ecologically, I hypothesize that the carrying capacity for biota is: (1) limited; (2) filled with locally adapted biota competing and ...

Salmon hatchery strays can demographically boost wild populations at the cost of diversity: quantitative genetic modelling of Alaska pink salmon [PDF]
Hatcheries are vital to many salmon fisheries, with inherent risks and rewards. While hatcheries can increase the returns of adult fish, the demographic and evolutionary consequences for natural populations interacting with hatchery fish on spawning ...

Reproductive success in wild and hatchery male coho salmon [PDF]
Salmon produced by hatcheries have lower fitness in the wild than naturally produced salmon, but the factors underlying this difference remain an active area of research.

Social influences complement environmental cues to stimulate migrating juvenile salmon [PDF]
Background The large-scale seasonal migrations undertaken by many species require complex navigational and timing decisions. Animals migrating in groups might benefit from collective decision making, especially if the environment has large local ...

Previous studies generally report that hatchery‐origin Pacific Salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) have lower relative reproductive success (RRS) than their natural‐origin counterparts. We estimated the RRS of Pink Salmon (O.

Parallel epigenetic modifications induced by hatchery rearing in a Pacific salmon [PDF]
Significance Captive rearing is known to impact the fitness of individuals released in the wild, but the relative role of genetic vs. nongenetic underlying processes is still debated. We measured genome-wide methylation profiles to document epigenetic differences between Pacific salmon originating from a hatchery and their natural ...

Straying of hatchery salmon in Prince William Sound, Alaska [PDF]
The straying of hatchery salmon may harm wild salmon populations through a variety of ecological and genetic mechanisms. Surveys of pink (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha), chum (O. keta) and sockeye (O. nerka) salmon in wild salmon spawning locations in Prince William Sound (PWS), Alaska since 1997 show a wide range of hatchery straying.

Wild chinook salmon survive better than hatchery salmon in a period of poor production [PDF]
The population dynamics of chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) from the Cowichan River on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada are used by the Pacific Salmon Commission as an index of the general state of chinook salmon coast wide. In recent years the production declined to very low levels despite the use of a hatchery that was intended to ...

Does density influence relative growth performance of farm, wild and F1 hybrid Atlantic salmon in semi-natural and hatchery common garden conditions? [PDF]
The conditions encountered by Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., in aquaculture are markedly different from the natural environment. Typically, farmed salmon experience much higher densities than wild individuals, and may therefore have adapted to living ...
