Piscirickettsia Infection in the Muskellunge Population of Lake St. Clair

−For decades, Lake St. Clair has supported an economically important sport fishery for muskellunge. The muskellunge population has been completely self-sustaining, thus any threat to the continued successful recruitment of muskellunge in the lake is a serious concern for fisheries managers. In 2002, muskellunge exhibiting external lesions were collected by the Michigan Department of Natural Res...

We introduce Chebyshev measures. We generalize the representation theorem concerning both measures admitting a density function which is a T–system and oriented measures.

Contaminant Transport and Spill Reference Tables for the St . Clair River

l The goal of this work is to calibrate a real-time hydrodynamic model for spill tracking in the St. Clair River and to provide decision makers with information for response planning and in the event of a spill. In order to provide experimental validation data, three dye releases were carried out to simulate movement of a potential contaminant in the river. Measurements of dye concentration wer...

Distribution, Abundance, and Biomass of Freshwater Mussels (Bivalvia: Unionidae) in Lake St. Clair

A mussel population survey was conducted in Lake St. Clair with divers using SCUBA to sample at 29 stations throughout the lake. Mean abundance was 2 m~2 and mean biomass was 4.4 g dry wt m~2. Of the 18 species collected, Lampsilis radiata siliquoidea was by far the most abundant, accounting for 45% of all individuals. The age-frequency distribution ofL. r. siliquoidea was dominated by individu...
