Victorian Faddishness: The Dolly Varden from Dickens to Patience

Dickens and doctors: vignettes of Victorian medicine.

the most challenging part of the commission, painting the head and face, was the most trying day for me because I was unable to move my head without upsetting the pose. The artist often consulted the photographs and to my surprise used a tape measure to determine the relationships between various parts of my face. The technique of facial measurement derives from Holbein, the sixteenth century D...

Stock Origins of Dolly Varden Collected from Beaufort Sea Coastal Sites of Arctic Alaska and Canada

—Anadromous northern Dolly Varden Salvelinus malma support a summer subsistence fishery in Beaufort Sea coastal waters. These same waters coincide with areas of oil and gas exploration and development. The purpose of this study was to assess variation in stock origins of Dolly Varden collected from sites along 400 km of Beaufort Sea coast. Mixed-stock analyses (MSA) of allozyme data were used t...

Trophic biology and migratory patterns of sympatric Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) and Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus)

The trophic ecology (diet and headmorphology) andmigration patterns of two closely related salmonid fishes, Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus (L., 1758)) and Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma (Walbaum, 1792)), were examined in tributaries of Lake Aleknagik, southwestern Alaska, to test for differentiation between species. Schoener’s index of proportional overlap andmultivariate analyses of diets sug...

Is isolation by adaptation driving genetic divergence among proximate Dolly Varden char populations?

Numerous studies of population genetics in salmonids and other anadromous fishes have revealed that population structure is generally organized into geographic hierarchies (isolation by distance), but significant structure can exist in proximate populations due to varying selective pressures (isolation by adaptation). In Chignik Lakes, Alaska, anadromous Dolly Varden char (Salvelinus malma) spa...
