Trends in offstream water use in Indiana, 1960-90 Trends in offstream water use in Indiana, 1960-90

Water-use data for Indiana from 1960 to 1990 were analyzed to determine general trends of offstream water use. Since 1960, total withdrawals have increased, although there have been periods of increases and decreases. The largest amount of water use (14,300 Mgal/d) occurred in 1980, which was almost 2.5 times more than in 1960. There has been a general increase in withdrawals by public...

Effects of one-year exposures to gas supersaturation on lake trout Effects of one-year exposures to gas supersaturation on lake trout

Lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) were reared for 1 year in water with one of six levels of incoming differential gas pressure (▵P): 4, 17, 33, 43, 58, or 75 mm Hg. Growth and survival of fish were evaluated as measures of response to the potential long‐term stress of elevated dissolved gases in rearing water. Mortality rates were not different among fish held in supersaturated water up...

Single-feeding response of chinook salmon fry to potential feed intake modifiers Single-feeding response of chinook salmon fry to potential feed intake modifiers

A study was conducted to determine the effects of various potential feed intake modifiers on initial feed consumption by spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). Feed intake was immediately and significantly influenced when glycine, trimethylamine, or betaine was added to experimental diets. Results support the notion that glycine enhances feed intake, whereas trimethylamine and...
