Hatchery Salmon and Ecological Overshoot
Aquaculture, Fish and FisheriesIs 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 ...

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023 Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

Managed metapopulations: do salmon hatchery 'sources' lead to in-river 'sinks' in conservation? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Maintaining viable populations of salmon in the wild is a primary goal for many conservation and recovery programs. The frequency and extent of connectivity among natal sources defines the demographic and genetic boundaries of a population. Yet, the role

Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) genome and transcriptome. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 When unifying genomic resources among studies and comparing data between species, there is often no better resource than a genome sequence. Having a reference genome for the Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) will enable the extensive genomic ...

Species‐ and origin‐specific susceptibility to bird predation among juvenile salmonids
Ecosphere, 2023 Juvenile salmonids often experience high mortality rates during migration and bird predation is a common source of mortality. Research suggests that hatchery‐reared salmonids are more prone to predation than wild salmonids, and that Atlantic salmon ...

Ecological implications of changing hatchery practices for Chinook salmon in the Salish Sea
Ecosphere, 2019 For over a century, hatchery programs have been used to subsidize natural salmon populations in order to increase fisheries opportunities and, more recently, to conserve declining natural populations.

Exterior indicators and physiological signs' indices of juveniles Salmo salar L. in the rivers of the Kola Peninsula [PDF]
Vestnik MGTU, 2017 The range of background values of main parameters of the exterior and indices of morphophysiological features of autumn juvenile salmon Salmon salar L. in four rivers of the Kola Peninsula not affected by hatchery production have been investigated.

The influence of the freshwater environment and the biological characteristics of Atlantic salmon smolts on their subsequent marine survival [PDF]
, 2012 Atlantic salmon have declined markedly in the past 20-30 years throughout their range. Much of the focus for this decline has been on increased mortality during the marine phase of the life cycle.
