Survival, growth, and catchability of rainbow trout of four strains
J.L. Brauhn, H. Kincaid
1982, North American Journal of Fisheries Management (2) 1-10
Fingerling rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) of genetically different strains survived, grew, and were caught at different rates by anglers and in gill nets after release from a hatchery into a 1‐hectare pond. When two domestic strains were compared, more fish of the strain genetically selected for fast growth were caught...
Plasma corticosteroids and chlorides in striped bass exposed to tricaine methanesulfonate, quinaldine, etomidate, and salt
K. B. Davis, N. C. Parker, M. A. Suttle
1982, Progressive Fish-Culturist (44) 205-207
Plasma chloride and corticosteroid concentrations were measured in yearling striped bass (Morone saxatilis) exposed to 25 mg/L tricaine methanesulfonate, 2.5 mg/L quinaldine, or 0.1 mg/L etomidate (an experimental drug), alone and in combination with 10 g/L salt (NaCl). Plasma chloride levels were unaffected in all treatments during a 15‐min exposure...
Biological effects of dietary T-2 toxin on rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri
H. A. Poston, J. L. Coffine, G. F. Combs Jr.
1982, Aquatic Toxicology (2) 79-88
A 16-wk feeding study was conducted to evaluate the chronic toxicity of graded levels (0, 1.0, 2.5.5, 10 and 15 mg/kg of chemically pure dietary T-2 toxin (4,15-diacetoxy-8-(3-methylbutyryloxy)-12,13-epoxy-Δ9-tricothecen-3-ol) in 1-g rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri, held in 9°C single-passage well water. Levels of T-2 toxin > 2.5 mg/kg depressed growth, efficiency of...

Chlamydiosis in 2 biologists investigating disease occurrences in wild waterfowl
Gary Wobeser, Christopher J. Brand
1982, Wildlife Society Bulletin (10) 170-172
Chlamydiosis (ornithosis, psittacosis) is an infectious disease of birds that can be transmitted to humans. Human infections are probably acquired by inhalation of aerosols containing elementary bodies of the causative agent Chlamydia psittaci, from bird droppings, or from tissues. Infected birds do not have to be ill to transmit the...

Alewives and rainbow smelt in Lake Huron: midwater and bottom aggregations and estimates of standing stocks
Ray L. Argyle
1982, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (111) 267-285
The continued availability of adequate amounts of forage fish, primarily alewives Alosa pseudoharengus and rainbow smelt Osmerus mordax, is critical to the success of ongoing programs aimed at rebuilding lake trout Salvelinus namaycush populations and maintaining other salmonid stocks in Lake Huron. These forage species are distributed at middepths as...
Volcanoes
Robert I. Tilling
1982, Report
Volcanoes destroy and volcanoes create. The catastrophic eruption of Mount St. Helens on May 18, 1980, made clear the awesome destructive power of a volcano. Yet, over a time span longer than human memory and record, volcanoes have played a key role in forming and modifying the planet upon which...

Decline of lake herring (Coregonus artedii) in Lake Superior: an analysis of the Wisconsin herring fishery, 1936-78
James H. Selgeby
1982, Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences (39) 554-563
Annual harvests of lake herring (Coregonus artedii) in American waters of Lake Superior declined from an average of 2 million kg in 1936–62 to less than 25 000 kg in 1978. Analysis of commercial fishing records revealed that the sequential overexploitation of discrete unit stocks caused the collapse of the herring population...
Accumulation by fish of contaminants released from dredged sediments
James G. Seelye, Robert J. Hesselberg, Michael J. Mac
1982, Environmental Science & Technology (16) 459-464
Inasmuch as the process of dredging and disposing of dredged materials causes a resuspension of these materials and an increase in bioavailability of associated contaminants, we conducted a series of experiments to examine the potential accumulation by fish of contaminants from suspended sediments. In the first experiment we compared accumulation...
Electric fences to reduce mammalian predation on waterfowl nests
J. T. Lokemoen, Harold A. Doty, D.E. Sharp, J.E. Neaville
1982, Wildlife Society Bulletin (10) 318-323
We evaluated electric fences as predator barriers to reduce high losses of waterfowl nests to mammalian predation at Waterfowl Production Areas (WPAs). The work was done in 1978-81 on 3 paired sites in central North Dakota and western Minnesota. Resident mammalian predators were trapped from inside the exclosures. All 3...

Comparative hatching success of lake trout eggs in Lake Michigan water and well water
Carol C. Edsall, Michael J. Mac
1982, Progressive Fish-Culturist (44) 47-48
A study was undertaken to examine the influence of water from southern Lake Michigan on the survival of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) eggs by comparing the hatching success of eggs from the same source incubated in water from Lake Michigan, or from the laboratory well. It is concluded that the...
Nocturnal activity and foraging of prairie raccoons (Procyon lotor) in North Dakota
Raymond J. Greenwood
1982, American Midland Naturalist (107) 238-243
Nocturnal activity and foraging of 39 radio-equipped raccoons (Procyon lotor) in eastern North Dakota were studied from April-July in 1974-1976. Sixteen of the raccoons were collected after foraging bouts for stomach content analysis. Raccoon activity consisted of running (13%), walking (49%) and local movement in confined areas (38%). Local movement...
Food of freshwater drum in western Lake Erie
Michael T. Bur
1982, Journal of Great Lakes Research (8) 672-675
The abundance of freshwater drum (Aplodinotus grunniens) suggests they play an important role in the Lake Erie ecosystem. Our analysis of freshwater drum digestive tracts and macrobenthic samples collected from western Lake Erie indicates that drum were selective feeders. Planktonic cladocerans and larval midges (Chironomidae) were the primary prey organisms...

The chemical and isotopic record of rock-water interaction in the Sherman Granite, Wyoming and Colorado
R. A. Zielinski, Z. E. Peterman, J. S. Stuckless, J.N. Rosholt, Ignatius T. Nkomo
1982, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (78) 209-219
Chemical, isotopic, radiographic, and rock-leaching data are combined to describe the effects of rock-water interactions in core samples of petrographically fresh, 1.43 b.y.-old Sherman Granite. The data serve to identify sensitive indicators of incipient alteration and to estimate the degree, pathways, and timing of element mobilization. Unfractured core samples of...
