Considering sampling bias in close‐kin mark–recapture abundance estimates of Atlantic salmon
Genetic methods for the estimation of population size can be powerful alternatives to conventional methods. Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is based on the principles of conventional mark–recapture, but instead of being physically marked, individuals are

Age composition of Chukchi sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka
Long-term data on age composition for Chukchi populations of sockeye salmon are presented. Spawners of 23 ages are recognized in the period 1970-2013 for 10 populations: 2+, 3+, 0.1+, 0.2+, 0.3+, 0.4+, 0.5+, 1.1+, 1.2+, 1.3+, 1.4+, 1.5+, 2.1+, 2.2+, 2.3+,

Sexual selection in hermaphrodites, sperm and broadcast spawners, plants and fungi [PDF]
Darwin was the first to recognize that sexual selection is a strong evolutionary force. Exaggerated traits allow same-sex individuals to compete over access to mates and provide a mechanism by which mates are selected. It is relatively easy to appreciate how inter- and intrasexual selection work in organisms with the sensory capabilities to perceive ...

Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

Okanogan Basin Spring Spawner Report for 2007. [PDF]
The Okanogan Basin Monitoring and Evaluation Program collected data related to spring spawning anadromous salmonid stocks across the entire Okanogan River basin. Data were collected using redd surveys, traps, underwater video, and PIT-tag technology then summarized and analyzed using simple estimate models.

Two contrasting estuarine copepods, Acartia tonsa and Eurytemora carolleeae, the former a broadcast spawner and the latter a brood spawner, were fed a constant carbon-based diatom diet, but which had a variable N:P content, and the elemental composition (
