Automated soft pressure sensor array-based sea lamprey detection using machine learning Automated soft pressure sensor array-based sea lamprey detection using machine learning
Sea lamprey, a destructive invasive species in the Great Lakes in North America, is among very few fishes that rely on oral suction during migration and spawning. Recently, soft pressure sensors have been proposed to detect the attachment of sea lamprey as part of the monitoring and control effort. However, human decision is still required for the recognition of patterns in the measured...

Test of a screw-style fish lift for introducing migratory fish into a selective fish passage device Test of a screw-style fish lift for introducing migratory fish into a selective fish passage device
Barriers are an effective mechanism for managing invasive species like sea lamprey in the Lau-rentian Great Lakes, but are detrimental because they limit the migration of desirable, native species. Fish passage technologies that selectively pass desirable species while blocking unde-sirable species are needed. Optical sorting tools combined with newly developed computer learning...

Understanding sea lamprey populations in the Great Lakes prior to broad implementation of sea lamprey control Understanding sea lamprey populations in the Great Lakes prior to broad implementation of sea lamprey control
Control of invasive sea lamprey in the Great Lakes with a selective pesticide (lampricide) that targeted larval sea lamprey began in the late 1950's and continues to be one of the main methods for control. Although the Great Lakes Fishery Commission, which was formed with the mandate of controlling sea lamprey, often expresses the success of the sea lamprey control program in terms of...

Before the first meal: The elusive pre-feeding juvenile stage of the sea lamprey Before the first meal: The elusive pre-feeding juvenile stage of the sea lamprey
Although sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) in the Laurentian Great Lakes have been studied intensively for more than 70 years, many questions remain about their complex life cycle. One of the least understood portions is the post-metamorphic stage (hereafter pre-feeding juvenile, PFJ) that occurs prior to parasitic feeding. PFJ must emerge from stream sediments and migrate downstream into...

Behavioral responses of sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) and white sucker (Catostomus commersonii) to turbulent flow during fishway passage attempts Behavioral responses of sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) and white sucker (Catostomus commersonii) to turbulent flow during fishway passage attempts
An understanding of how undesirable and desirable fish species respond behaviorally to turbulent flow in fishways would guide development of selective fish passage techniques. We applied high-resolution computational fluid dynamics modeling and competing risks analysis towards the development of predictive selective passage models. Sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus; an invasive fish in the...

Advancements towards selective barrier passage by automatic species identification: Applications of deep convolutional neural networks on images of dewatered fish Advancements towards selective barrier passage by automatic species identification: Applications of deep convolutional neural networks on images of dewatered fish
Invasive species negatively affect enterprises such as fisheries, agriculture, and international trade. In the Laurentian Great Lakes Basin, threats include invasive sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) and the four major Chinese carps. Barriers have proven to be an effective mechanism for managing invasive species but are detrimental in that they also limit the migration of desirable...
