Regional prediction of basin-scale brown trout habitat suitability
In this study we propose a novel method for the estimation of ecological indices describing the habitat suitability of brown trout (Salmo trutta). Traditional hydrological tools are coupled with an innovative regional geostatistical technique, aiming at the prediction of the brown trout habitat suitability index where partial or totally ungauged conditions occur. Several methods for the assessm...
متن کاملSpawning Habitat Selection by Rainbow Trout in the Pere Marquette River, Michigan
We evaluated habitat features (i.e., substrate particle size, water depth, water velocity) at spawning redds and randomly selected reference locations (where spawning activity was not apparent) to determine importance of these features to rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) spawning habitat use in the Pere Marquette River, Michigan, 1997 to 1999. Rainbow trout selected areas with small gravel, ...
متن کاملRelationship between oxidative stress and circulating testosterone and cortisol in pre-spawning female brown trout.
Reproduction in vertebrates is an energy-demanding process that is mediated by endogenous hormones and potentially results in oxidative stress. The primary aim of this study was to quantify the relationship between oxidative stress parameters (antioxidant capacity and levels of reactive oxygen metabolites) and circulating testosterone and cortisol in a common and widespread teleost fish, the br...
متن کاملUse of habitat heterogeneity in salmonid spawning habitat rehabilitation design
A shortage of salmonid spawning habitat on dammed and regulated rivers has led to the popularity of spawning habitat rehabilitation projects. Habitat heterogeneity is thought to be an important feature of aquatic ecosystems, but specific metrics for design and assessment are lacking. In August 2002, ~ 2,786 metric tons of spawning gravels and 7 large boulders were placed in a 155 meter reach on...
متن کاملFeeding behavior of brown trout, Salmo trutta fario, during spawning season in four rivers of Lar National Park, Iran
Brown trout, Salmo trutta fario, has a wide range of distribution in the north of Iran and in Karaj, Lighvanchai and Karun Rivers, but there is no report about its feeding behavior in some water resources including the Lar Natural Park. In order to study feeding behavior of this fish during spawning season, a survey was carried out in the rivers of Elarm, Aab-Sefid, Kamardasht and Delichayi in ...
