Prevalence of Renibacterium salmoninarum among downstream-migrating salmonids in the Columbia River Prevalence of Renibacterium salmoninarum among downstream-migrating salmonids in the Columbia River
Bacterial kidney disease (BKD) is an important contributor to mortality of salmonids in hatcheries in the Columbia River basin. However, the impact of BKD on the survival of downstream migrants is difficult to determine because there is little information on the disease-related mortality among these fish. In this study, the impact of BKD on juvenile salmonids was examined by determining...

Fabrication of stainless steel spherical anodes for use with boat-mounted boom electroshocker Fabrication of stainless steel spherical anodes for use with boat-mounted boom electroshocker
A frugal method of fabricating spherical anodes from stainless steel mixing bowls is presented. We believe that the purported mechanical disadvantages of using spherical electrodes are largely unfounded.

Predation by northern squawfish on live and dead juvenile Chinook salmon Predation by northern squawfish on live and dead juvenile Chinook salmon
Northern squafish Ptychocheilus oregonensis is a major predator of juvenile salmonids Oncorhynchus spp. migrating downstream through the Columbia River. High predation rates occur just below dams. If northern squafish selectively consume salmonids killed or injured during dam passage, previous estimates of predation mortality may be too high. We conducted laboratory experiments that...

Physiological and hematological changes in Chum Salmon artificially infected with Erythrocytic Necrosis virus Physiological and hematological changes in Chum Salmon artificially infected with Erythrocytic Necrosis virus
Chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta were injected with erythrocytic necrosis virus (ENV) to study the physiological and hematological consequences of ENV infection. Infected and control fish were held in pathogen-free seawater and sampled for 5 weeks. Physiological tests included measures of plasma cortisol, glucose, protein, and osmolality; blood lactic acid; and liver glycogen. In general...
