Development of SNP Panels from Low‐Coverage Whole Genome Sequencing (lcWGS) to Support Indigenous Fisheries for Three Salmonid Species in Northern Canada

Molecular Ecology Resources
Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels are powerful tools for assessing the genetic population structure and dispersal of fishes and can enhance management practices for commercial, recreational and subsistence mixed‐stock fisheries.

Subsistence preference in practice: access decisions in salmon fisheries in the Alaskan Yukon River

Ecology and Society
We examine Alaska Department of Fish and Game’s adherence to derived indicators of ecological and social sustainability. Ecological indicators rely on historical records of stock-status information and access decisions, while social indicators rely on a ...

In-season predictions of daily harvest for lower Kuskokwim River subsistence salmon fisheries

North American Journal of Fisheries Management
ABSTRACT Objective Reliable expectations of outcomes are critical for successfully selecting among candidate actions. Accordingly, we sought to develop models for predicting fishery outcomes from daily drift gill-net openers in the lower Kuskokwim River subsistence salmon fishery in rural western ...
